The Golden Rules of My Love

Loving me is the major requirement
from beginning to end
I ask because I give
I know my worth...I am a prize
It's in the book

The first woman was the greatest creation
we've gotten greater over time
I am no comparison to the ladder
for I was created divine

Walk Tall
Love me hard in the dark
As handsome as I
Understand that I work hard,
and I love harder.

On my own two feet I stand-
beside, behind, in front and underneath
you hold my hand.
Compliment my very essence
not only my presence

Thank Him for putting me in your path
because without Him we will fail.

Interrupt me not, and appreciate my thoughts.
Kiss me when you're angry
Teach me what I do not know
Respect you above all others
think of me before another
Small things never go unnoticed
Reciprocation of effort

The list can grow as I get closer to the one
molded for I.
Loving me the same and I love you
is my major requirement.

I'll love me some him,

Wall to Wall

Would it be better to hit a wall fast as lightning or with the speed of the tortoise?
I can’t help but wonder, will I know the feeling? I can only imagine.
The crash will make me lose all sense of sensibility
but it won’t do damage
When I hit the wall, I will donate my heart to him
His life will change because of the love in mine
Living life through the eyes of mine
The crash will do the reverse effect of mending what was broken
The harder I fall, the longer our hearts will call
The preference would be fast as lighting
So once I remember, it could be relieved in the speed of the tortoise as I come to

Life, Love and I

Living for you caused me to forget my own potential
my goals and my dreams.
Loving for you has caused me to forget-
what love should really love like
It was not meant to be perfect,
but it was supposed to be for me.
The goals I had are transforming
My dreams becoming lived
Love will find me
I have to get back to living myself
Your life didn't seem to want me, I have to love my own
If you aren't willing to meet me where I am
My life, love and I will leave you where you are

Loving to live,
Barbara's Daughter
