Hope for True Love:>
I hope someday I’ll find someone true,
Who’ll love me for me, as I am, through and through.
Someone who sees beyond my scars,
And heals my heart with the light of stars.
I hope they’ll stay when my walls are high,
And calm my fears when I question why.
May they show me love I’ve never known,
A place to feel safe, a heart-like home
“An Experience I Never Thought I’d Face Again”
The whole time I sat with someone new,
I wished, deep down, that it was you.
You — the one I dreamed of all along,
The one who made me feel I belonged.

I imagined your face across from mine,
The laughter, the talks, the shared lifeline.
But here I was, with someone kind,
Yet thoughts of you clouded my mind.
He treated me in all the ways I dreamed,
Patient, gentle, so perfectly it seemed.
But he’s not you — that truth won’t fade,
Though I know for my heart, this choice is made.
How can I sit here and not feel wrong,
Like I’m betraying a love now gone?
But you were unfaithful, broke my trust,
So I must move forward; I know I must.
I won’t let regret anchor my soul,
I’ll seek someone who makes me whole.
Yet the weight of what we could’ve been,
Still lingers, quiet, deep within..
