an Image on my mind

An Image in my Mind

I have this image in my mind 

The Lady who makes my day, 

In order to respond to it 

There's a price that I must pay.

I realize that you're out there 

The perfect mate for me, 

But before I try to find you 

My soul must first be free.

You see, before I start my search 

My true self I must know, 

For once this quest has been appeased 

I'll be shown which way to go.

There are so many facets of 

Myself I show each day, 

The real me's hidden deep inside 

I'm quite ashamed to say.

It's wrong to wear a false front 

Just to see who I can get, 

For if this role is what I choose 

It's a choice I'll soon regret.

This act will soon catch up to me 

My real soul I can't hide, 

While being who I'm meant to be 

Can leave me filled with pride.

I have this image in my mind 

I know who I'm to be, 

Where before it just confused me 

I now feel truly free.

So now it's time to find my mate 

The search could be quite wide, 

But just knowing that you're out there 

I can FEEL you by my side...
