I'd Rather Dance Alone

We see it so often
People that want to start the fire but won't admit that they did
People that get everyone all worked up and then just sit back and watch people make fools of themselves
I for one can not stand those types of people
I am a firm believer that if I believe in it then I will stand alone without being fueled by what other people feel or say
The power behind standing strong is the confidence to stand alone
There are people that only feel strong when they are being pushed or when other people speak for them
I never like hearing what I say repeated incorrectly
It just does something to my spirit
If I am feeling strongly about anything I want my voice and feelings heard and understood
Some times a message can drop it's power if said by the wrong person
If you are the originator of the message then only you can deliver it in the way it was intended
You have that feeling inside of you and you alone can make that point present
So don't stand behind or beside other people to support your feelings because no matter what you are really just standing alone
It's just like me in the club, when my song plays and I'm ready to dance, I don't pull people on the dance floor that don't really want to get down with me, I'd rather dance alone

Hunger For Happiness

From the moment we met I could sense the closing of the void
He makes parts of my life seem so familiar
I use to dwell on the idea that it was utterly impossible to find what people call..."Soul Mate"
I figured that people made this title up to keep the hope that there is a chance for true love
If more people thought that such a thing existed then the balance of emotion would always stay even
As I became older and more introduced to what the world actually offerred us in the way of a love life I was quickly turned against the very thought of having one person for the rest of your life
Marriage, kids, a dream home...those things just seemed so unattainable to me due to the fact that I was never really surrounded by people that believed in true love
I saw so many people with partners that seemed just right for them but I would see cheating, flirting, total disrespect to the foundation of love, relationship, and marriage
Becoming cold and distant seemed to be the only advantage to keep from getting your heart broken
The back lash to that thought is you become the one breaking hearts and destroying people's idea of true love
Many times I have comes across someone that viewed me as their one and only
Because I no longer believed in the myth I walked over their feelings and felt safe because I protected me from getting heart
It wasn't until I had my first taste of true love and then to have that true love break my heart that I realized what I'd done in my past
So from that moment on I re-invented my heart, I looked at my past lovers as experiences and not ex-lovers
It seems that if something is given such a horrible title, it feels horrible
If you take the time and re-evaluate what happened and use that experience as a guideline for your future then you can find a point in your heart to thank them for what they brought to your life and not view them as a mistake
After such a bumpy past and a jaded mindset of love I have found the one
I feel that "Soul Mate" not only a great title but a great feeling
I have this man in my life that makes me regret sleep because I want to stay under him and talk to him for eternity
I dread work because that is time spent away from him
I constantly worry about him
I want him happy all of the time
I feel protective of his feelings and his honor
I can't imagine functioning without him
Missing him is more important than being angry with him
He and I have created a love dish so devine that it soothes the hunger for happiness and I am no longer starving
