Worth Waiting For

Everyone whispered their slander I believed Everyone whispered your temper I believed Everyone whispered be careful around you I believed Slowly, I felt your kindness I couldn’t believe Slowly, I felt your humility I couldn’t believe Slowly, I saw you I couldn’t believe Slowly drawn to you like a magnet My heart saying I was wrong Now here I sit, confused Wishing I didn’t believe Hoping you will open the door You are worth waiting for

Hi there Darlene. I learned that lesson the hard way. I almost married someone a long time ago. I was worried it wasn't for the right reason so I told her maybe it wasn't a good idea at the time. It is over 15 years ago now, but I regret that for a very long time.

Bryon, this went straight to my FAV list. It is amazing to me that the first one to get a story to a person is often the one believed, and for no better reason than that. I am vitally careful now.

Hi there Caren. How's life over yonder meadows? It helped to have someone to write about. Thank you!
