My thoughts that run through my mind

I must set myself free

I'm the forgotten prisoner living outside the walls.

I am the innocent serving time right along side my loved one.

I maybe free to do what I please I have that choice to do so.

I have no say so or can do anything about my loved one's time inside. It's all in someone else's hands. All I can do is be by his side and help them along with what he is going through, that makes me just as much a prisoner too. I can't touch him can't hold him nor kiss him; we have to share our special moments with others just alike.

I'm right there with him maybe not locked up in a cell; my bars are invisible that only I can see.

How I feel is the same as him missing our companionship and being able to hold each other close while we sleep.

Having to come home alone is the worst feeling of all.

Honey I'm home and no one there to respond back.

Staying by the phone just so I won't miss your call is my own prison within myself.

I have to break these chains and live life again.

No matter how much the hurt I have to be free

Have faith

Step out your back yard look at the beauty that surrounds you and breathe it in.

Take time to let your mind be free and feel the wind rustle through your hair and whisper in your ear how much you are loved.

I close my eyes and picture you with me.

Taking my hand and telling me that everything is going to be alright.

Telling me that all I have to do is just believe.

Trust in me.

give up your worries and let me work them out.

Have faith, have hope, have patience remember it's when you least expect it.

God works it out

Love is...

Love has its twists and turns nothing is ever perfect, love isn't about finding the perfect person but learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.

You know the saying every woman is looking for that perfect man well there is no perfect man only Jesus.

We women complain that our man doesn't help with the chores or he may not help out with changing a diaper or he doesn't like to go to the movies with you.

You have to stop looking at all the bad things he does and look toward the good things this can go with you men out there too. Appreciate your loved one tell them you love him/her. I know I have that problem saying those three words I love you sometimes they need to hear it every once in a while.

You never know what lies ahead in your life you can die tomorrow I know that sounds depressing but it is true don't wait till tomorrow because tomorrow may never come.

So surprise your loved one with a phone call at work just saying I love you or make that special dinner tonight or even better lay out the bed full of rose petals and lighted candles and a hot bath waiting on the both of you.

Never give up on love when you know it made you happy in the first place. Relationship is hard work and hard work pays off in the long run.

Would you want to give up everything you work so hard to become where it is just to throw it away I wouldn't think so.

Love has patience love has hope love is kind
