I see them. There everywhere. Two individuals, happy; content with just a smile from their possession. Their "persona perfecta por vida" or "perfect person for life" yet I'm told I'm too young.  Too immature to Handel such extravagance and yet, if there was something so beautifully envious and  powerful why would one put a restriction in which age is Such an important factor? So I will wait, like the young lady I am - patient ,kind , always sitting up straight for prince charming   with pointed ankles crossed.

This piece was written out of frustration when I realized it wasn't Gods path for
Me to be in a serious relationship at this age. I know now what he was protecting me from, and I will continue to thank him.
