There is this piece of me that's missing....
I can feel it every time I see couples kissing
Every time I see an elderly couple holding hands as they walk down the street.
Maybe I'm naive and adolescent for thinking this way
I want to find a true love.
Someone I can wake up to every morning and say "I love you."
Someone who is caring, genuine, gentle, and compassionate
Someone who accepts my quirks and crazy moments
Someone who will just be there when I need them most.
I keep finding these people that I think will fit my missing piece
but I either end up finding that they don't fit at all...
or that they don't want to fill that gap, even though I feel like they could if they wanted to.
I want to be able to say years down the line that I found my perfect puzzle piece and in plenty of time.
But I feel like the more that I look, the more deformed the hole in the puzzle becomes
I fear that eventually it won't be able to fit a piece at all
that I'll end up being a bitter person because of it.
I trust you Lord, just show me who I should show this gap to.
Help me to be the man you want me to be.
To only fall for that right person for me.
I don't want to hurt anyone else.
