Story of Love (Dedication to my Rib)

See you've been here before and that’s where you shall stay, but for others I want them to know how it got that way.....that is, how you managed to find the directions to my heart. Well there is one simple way to do that, let me begin from the start.

I had an incomprehensible pain and it felt so bad, and the only way to fix it was to get rid of all I had. The emotions, the feelings, the pain, the memories although, it was all supposed to make me stronger, it all had to go.

So I packed it up and threw it far away, never for one moment thinking it would journey back this way. But somewhere along its journey it found someone named you, and from that moment both our lives would start anew.

See, you befriended that lost heart not knowing the story it told, but simply realizing it wasn’t broken or damaged- just cold.

So u listened to it and let it guide u, it was your GPS. All you had to do was care and it did all the rest.

It took u down the street of anguish and it made a left on the avenue of Dispair. You thought to yourself "stuff like this just isn't fair."

As it slowed on the BLVD of Broken Dreams, you began to CHOKE, but it said don’t shed one tear we are almost at the bridge of hope....

“See where we are now is where I used to reside, but something tells me the life my owner once knew has died. I’m being compelled to cross that bridge because that’s where he is, for if the pain I possess isn’t in him, then he has to be experiencing happiness.”

So you continued to tarry and search and did all you could, to continue to search for me as the heart said you should.

I still don’t understand how this all happened but with all of this occurring it must have been destined.

SO as you walked over the bridge there I stood, waiting for someone to do something only you could.

See I couldn’t yet go to the land of hope, because all my dreams were gone in a puff of smoke.

But what I needed was another dream and that was you, and you would be the one to revive and make my heart new.

As my heart led you closer to where I was, I started to feel again but it was still a feeling of fuzz.

But the closer you got the warmer I felt, and I realized that you were the person I was supposed to tell,

You were who I was supposed to be with, and you would truly show me happiness.

As you got closer you extended my heart back to me, I could not accept it because it now belonged to thee.

……what happens when you finally reach the end of me, well you simply pray and wait for the person that makes you complete.
