Not Easily Broken

My heart has had many journeys
I thought my journey would end with you
But alas you were not ready to make me your final destination
I should be crushed
Sad, can't eat, sleep, or heartbroken
But I am not easily broken
You lead me to believe in you
Feel you
Accept you as you are
Understand you
Give to you
Still you weren't quite ready
For all that I have to offer
I am not easily broken
Memories of past encounters
Still bring a smile on my face
Anger does not consume me
Passion still feels me
Unconditional love
Guides me
I am not easily broken
I shed not one tear
For I already know that
One day you're gonna wake up
Reach for me
And I'll be there
But you aren't quite ready yet
Still trying to find your way
It's okay
I understand
It's a hard thing to embrace
Someone wanting to be the ending of your beginning
To give more than you ask
And no matter what
Not easily broken
I am the yolk that makes us balanced
The ying to your yang
My heart already knows
You are the better part of me
I am the better part of you
Still I am not easily broken
When you are ready to face what was already set into place
I will be here
Arms stretched wide
Heart filled with unconditional love
For I am not easily broken

It's Not Gonna Work

You think when you're in it
It's what you want
But then you realize that your freedom
Was what you wanted all along
That you still wanna play the field
Or just make sure you're not really
Missing out on "The One"
Deep down inside you know that isn't really the reason
You're afraid of the exposure
The vulnerability of someone
Seeing the core of you
Seeing you emotionally naked
Seeing the bad and wondering about the good
The ugly side that we all have but some
Keep in check better than others
So you run and hide behind the wall of convenience
Hoping reality will not be
And you can continue playing the field
Denying your heart
Feeling lonely and confused
Because you knew he/she was "The One" from the start
But the feelings are so intense that even when you try to hide
They find you and hunt you in the middle of the night
So now you say
"I must get out"
It isn't quite so simple
The heart doesn't lie
The mind plays tricks on you
To protect the ego
But no matter how hard u fight
You cannot run from the truth of the matter
The heart always wins
