If it were a different time and a different place, I'd feel quite different I would have loved to let you do all the things I know you are capable of doing I would have loved to share my innermost deepest darkest secrets with you, who desires the same connection I would have loved to let you do all of the things that only good girls dream of But to let YOU do that now, I'd be going against everything I stand for Your home life is something I could never compete with - I'd love to have the same kind of homelife someday of my own But to let you give it to me because you feel there is a missing spark in your home and not enough in mine Or because when YOU look at me, you see a lonely woman Or because YOU think that in order for me to be happy, I need a man like you to provide it I'd be buying a pipe dream..... You have not looked at me thru my own eyes to see that I am at peace with me Your idea of a happy woman is giving everything she wants that shine but I see you give nothing a woman needs You fail to see that I only want companionship to add to my own happiness, and the fact that I don't need YOU as the source for my happiness And for me to fall for the oke doke you brought thru my front door I'd just be buying this huge pipe dream with a "for-soul" sign on it So I'd appreciate it if you'd pack up your pipe dream and take it with you on your way out And please don't bring it back I don't have to sell my soul for the dreams I have of my ownBirth sign: Cancer
