Open to the Possibilities

I've been told

I'm too nice.

I'm not real

I'm too strong

I'm too old

I'm too young

I've been told
I'm intimidating
I'm too smart

I thought you'd be seeing someone,

I'm too independent

If you were a girl...

Am I so much a mother figure,

teacher, sister, friend,buddy

That my femininity has disappeared completely?

Open to the possibilities

but often I find they don't seem open to me

Love is out there

Waiting patiently

Discovering it's a

painful, wonderful journey 

Here I go again

exploring

hoping to make a marvelous discovery

I cannot listen to 

what I've been told

Open to the possibilities

Love will see me.
