A New Direction

It's like finding yourself at a fork in the road.
Which way do you go? The sign don't help, they all say the same thing.
Whatever direction you take you'll end up somewhere unknown.
There are no guarantees that you'll will like the outcome of whatever path you take.
But the goals the paths lead to are all the same.
But which one do you take? And does it really matter?
I think it does.
Even-though the roads all lead to the same goal, which path you take can influence you a great deal.
Will you take the short cut? so you'll be there very quick? Or maybe the scenic route so you can take in the sights.
The road less traveled could be more your cup of tea if you're the adventurous type.
Or is it the path of least resistance that draws you in?
Each path tells you a about who you are and what you're made of.
And each path will give you different experiences in return.
So which path is the best? If there is such a thing.
Can you switch paths or do you have to stay your course?
Will you live your life regretting that you have chosen the wrong path?
Do you really have to choose only one path?
One thing is clear and that is that the only way is forward.
One path two or all of them it doesn't matter how many or which you choose, as long as you make a choice.
make a choice and take that new direction.
But which path will I take?

Slap in the Face?

Even-though it was a secret, I've known it for a while.
And when you finally told me, I took it with a smile.
Is it a fling or something serious, I couldn't really care less.
It's not because you don't matter, It's because you do, I guess.
I really wish you well and I hope it will workout.
And if it doesn't, it's his fault, that I can say without a doubt.
Not feeling upset right now won't be something I'll regret.
Because the time we had together is something I'll never forget.

Desparate pleas for attention.

It's nothing new, it's been there a while.
This feeling is nice, it makes me smile.
It's just that I'm not sure what I'm to do.
Do I need to wait, or do I have to pursue.

Shall I play it smooth and really slow?
Or would that just annoy you and make you say NO!
Do I have a shot or is my mind playing tricks.
Are you for real? Or is it just for kicks.

I need to know what it is, I'm going insane!
You've got nothing to lose and so much to gain.
So just tell me what I want to hear and you better say it quick.
'Cause I can't stand another minute not knowing, it really makes me sick.

It won't be much trouble, it'll only take a sec.
But when you do, you won't regret, you'll never want to go back.
So come over quick, phone or write before things go amiss.
Then tell me want I need to hear and we'll start it with a kiss.

The Kissing Scale

In this digital age we text and mail all day.
Loved ones, friends, lovers, we all send them our love.

But what we send and what we receive has more meaning than you think.

This is what we send and what we say when we send it.

xoxo are hugs and kisses for a friend or family member when you want to send your love.

:-x is the kissing face. A fun way to show your affection. It has many variations, but always means the same.
Love is shown, but it will always be less personal than the others that will be discussed here later.

x is a kiss to someone dear to you, but just a small one. More personal than the kissy face.
Just enough so the otherone knows you care.

X is a bigger kiss. You want to make sure they know how you feel about them.
You obviously care a lot.

Kiss is, when written in full, a means to let someone know that they are very high on your list.

Not something you send to a relative. You purposely chose to type out the whole word.
You could probably say that you have feelings for this person that go beyond friendship.

When you're at the receiving end of a text and you really like that person.
You'll hope it'll end with a "Kiss"...

Moral Support

Sometimes when you're blue and feeling down, someone can cheer you up with just the right words.
Sometimes it's family, it can be a friend or maybe it's a neighbour. Even strangers can lift your spirit.
Some people are able to do this more effectively than others.
Sometimes it's because they're are wise and know exactly what to say.
It can also be that all you needed was pat on the shoulder or a hug.
Some people however have a power over you that few others have.
It's when these people show that they care that it can really make a huge difference.
When they tell you it'll turn out allright, you instantly believe it.
When they say there's no need to worry, you won't worry anymore.
When they wish you a good night, you'll sleep like a baby.
That person can make or break your day.
Just a text can make you feel lighter than air.
That's when you know that person is special to you.
Let's just hope you won't need to be cheered up by anyone else...
