In this world I was born, nothing seems easy

I had to wait for long before I get what I want

I always had to cry before i achieve my aim in life

I always had to struggle to attain a greater height

This world is sometimes cruel and wicked

Can’t I just dance to my own tunes, and don’t have to please the world at all time

Can’t I make my rules and live by it, without any interference

I was taught while growing up that nothing good comes easy, that’s why it took me so long for this to come

But no matter how long I waited, I knew it was worth it

i never knew love could be this beautiful, it took me unawares and am drunk with your love

Love…..did I just say….love?

it seems to me like an understatement, I need a better word to describe what i feel for you

But what ever it is I just want you to know that all my life I have searched all my life for

Real love……blameless love…..perfect love…..holy love……and true love

But the more I searched the more I remember the movie “Titanic”

Maybe I may get very old while waiting for my true love

So I came to a conclusion that no perfect love exist

I just have to take what I see, and it pains my heart

But a beautiful day came, it was so beautiful that the heavens smiled at the earth, and then smiled at me

On that faithful day, I was not searching for love and it came knocking on my door

I opened and stood by the door, refusing to let it in

‘Not interested’ I said harshly

And I hissed and banged the door

But on a second taught, I began to feel sorry, I was too rude on it, so i opened the door just to apologize

But it was no were, I called out but in vain

I called again and again and again and suddenly the strange love appears

I smiled, even though i don’t know why

I let the strange love in, without knowing why

‘Am I doing the right thing’ i asked myself

‘Are you crazy, how could you let a total strange love into your house, have you forgotten how the other strange lovers treated you, they beat you and left you helpless in the high way to die, send him out now while you still can’. a parted of me said

I wanted to throw him out as my mind suggested, but another taught came to me

‘how would you know which ’strange love’ is good or bad, when other strange lover came knocking, you opened and along the line you observed some negative character which you ignored, and things got worse, this is the time to give this ’strange love’ a chance and observe if its good or not’

I decide to follow my heart

As the day go by, I observe good things

This strange love changed my life positively

It gave me hope of a better future

It brought the ME in ME that was hidden

It gave so much joy my heart desired

This ’strange love’ is no longer strange to me

its now part of me…..we live together…bath together……eat together……sleep together…..dream together and as I write….we write together

I love this love

And this love is YOU!!!
