Ready for Love

I am ready for love

Why are you hiding from me?

I'd quickly give my freedom

To be held in your captivity

I've been on this journey of self-discovery for a while now. My life has been turned completely upside down and slowly being put back together. I had been very hesitant to date or even allowing myself to be available to someone else. I am still "technically" married, but as of today, there are 54 days until it's official and the divorce is final. One of my fears is that I'll be alone. I do not however want to rush into another relationship, but I would like to start dating. I think I'm ready to venture out into that world.

What's odd is that I've never really "dated". I've always met someone and then, magically we're together. I'd like for things to be totally different than what I've been used to. I want a guy to call me up and ask to take me to a dinner, a movie, hell...a walk in the park. I want to be courted (as my grandmother would say). There are guys that I am interested in, but for once I'd like for someone to show more interest in me than sexually(although that is flattering).

There is so much more to me than most of the men in my past have ever gotten to know. I'm ready for someone to want to get to know "me".

I am ready for love

If you'll take me in your hands

I will learn what you teach

And do the best that I can
