| The One | |||
| The One calls your name you hear but do you listen Is it Him Is it the One Or is it but another pretender Saying the words Walking the walk Swaggering In your heart you know If it doesn't fit, It doesn't fit And you tread water Waiting for that elevator Watching the fools rush by He calls again you turn and acknowledge And He smiles Take the time it takes To know, really know And to trust As without trust there really is nothing Be honest with He who wants you Gauge His responses and your own Explain what you mean And have Him do the same Communicate Speak openly Warn Him Ask first Without communication there really is nothing Be respected Only then may you respect Respect grows from knowledge Honesty and communication Be respectful Know He will appreciate it Even if you haven't found Him yet your past will always catch up with you And without respect there really is nothing Kneel before him Head held high Knowing yourself And knowing Him Kiss His feet Because it is your greatest desire Not because you have been told to Nor under sufferance For without desire there really is nothing Love who you are Or change who you are So you may truly love yourself Then you may be ready To accept Another's love In its deepest, darkest, and most intense moments Through self acceptance, honesty, respect and desire, To accept it Is to give ones gift And without love, in the end, there really is nothing. |
