I can no longer pretend to be someone I'm not. I've loved all the attention but my heart belongs to someone. Someone I shared a dance with so long ago. Someone I never thought I'd love. Someone I thought was out of my life forever. We live so far apart and due to circumstances I'm unable to go home to be with him. He can't leave home because it's where his life is, his job, his work. He's a simple man and it's one of the things I love and admire about him most. No drama. No lies. I don't trust many but I'll always trust him. I'll always feel safe in his arms. I'll always have his heart as he has mine. We've loved each other for so long and I'm tired of searching for something that is right in front of me. I just have to find a way to be with the one I want. I can't wait another three years. I don't think he can either. From this moment on I'll do what I can to prove to him that even though so many years have passed and we've both changed in so many ways that I am the woman for him as he is the man for me. I want to prove to him that we belong together because we keep coming back together. We were made for each other and forever more will we be in love. I gave up on love once, I will not do it again. This is my second chance. I will not give this second chance up as I'll have no other. The heart wants what the heart wants and my heart yearns to be free and to be with and love only one man. So I'm going to stop this foolish pretending because it's not the real me.
