Even if you were joking
by Chelsey

I’m so very picky when it comes to choosing my men
To have in a partner the special quality of a friend
It seems that no one has a male or even an ear to lend
I wonder if I’ll get so desperate and tired of searching that I’ll have to pretend

Sometimes I think I’m in fear of falling in love
I want my man to be approved and loved by the Lord above
It’s so hard not to have someone special in my mind to think of
The only thing I’ve got was a humourous but meaningless hug

I shouldn’t have to say sorry for not having a man by my side
It’s not as if I’m trying or intentionally have something to hide
One day I know I’ll be a beautiful bride
Still, these cold and somewhat lonely nights I seem to be left alone to cry

Guys in my area are far from being my type
Gutter trash and foul mouthed, sipping beers while blazing pipes
No way my passion could grow and develop into ripe
If I want a plain guy, All the ones I know are made of stripes

Not one of them tries to grow up or be mature
They think sex is the only way to get some and please her
No respect these days for the answer “no” or “I’m not sure”
No one at my age seems to be self respecting or pure

But all of a sudden, the dark clouds are gone
The angels come singing with “Hallelujah” in their song
Just for once maybe this time its me who is wrong
I met someone who doesn’t care the color of my thong

A man of God, even more appealing to the eye
One outgoing person, so far from shy
Not a quitter, always willing to give more to try
I feel and think that just maybe... I have a crush on this guy

A couple years older, not a problem for me
For a crush is a crush and knows not what age will be
Im elated like a butterfly, so happy and free
Oh wow, lucky me... how wonderful is he?

Cute and nerdy in his unique own way
Just like me he is different... which is quite ok
He has respect for my beliefs and what I have to say
Someone I’d like to be with each and every day

He’d defiantly be someone I could learn trust
I think my family would even approve of us
Yes aside from our faith there’s still evident lust
Oh my goodness, yes, indeed... I do have a crush

Oh I like you, yes its true
I turn to paper because I don’t know what to do
I never had a man, I think I’m due
Even if you were joking, I love when you said “I love you”



Hold on
by Mahalkitaadora

You say you love me
and you don't want me to go
I need you to hear me
there's something you should know

I'm scared to fall in love again
I know your feelings are the same
I never thought I could love again
until the day you came

You swept me off my feet
the clouds I am above
the sad part of this
is you've never felt a true love

I know this can work
so please don't shy away
just hold onto what we have
and tell me that you'll stay.



Missing You
by Ratchild666

I close my eyes
And there I see
Another precious memory

I drift away
And fall into
A dream full of me and you

My life lights up
You laugh and smile
But it only lasts a little while

As then I crash
Back down to here
Knowing you are nowhere near

Here I am
Miss you so much
And the lightness of your touch

Lying awake
Thinking of you
Wishing I was with you too

Can't wait until
I see you there
Missing you I cannot bear




Stronger
by Melissa D

An adventerous trip
Surprising and rare
Come stay here with me
Show me how you care

Hold me so tight
Starving for you to
Take care of me
And I'll take care of you

Oh don't you see
What you do to me
Falling so fast
And so free
Catch me in your arms
Cause it feels so right
Kiss me so sweet
In the dead of the night

It's so indescribable
I'm lost for the words
Overwhelmed with thoughts
Of what's rapidly occurred

Your skin so soft
Fingers running through my hair
Wanting these feelings
To unite for us to share

I think you'd agree
What you do to me
Falling so fast
And oh so free
No, don't let it end
Feelings getting stronger
Take in a deep breath
Won't you stay a while longer




Scared to Love You
by Megan McMichael

I wanted to love you,
But I was just too scared.
Haunted by the past,
That always seemed to reappear.

I tried my best to run and hide,
But I just couldn't get you off my mind.
Should I give love a second chance?
Or am I just wasting my time?

You promised you were different,
But so did the rest.
Then you took my hand and looked into my eyes,
And I knew you had already passed the test.

So I took a chance,
And fell deeply in love.
Maybe this is what I've been looking for,
That special kind of love from above.

God can this be true?
But everything is happening so fast.
But something is telling me,
That I've found true love at last.
