About Me

I am lost and broken. Saved by grace through faith. These are the obsessive thoughts of a sinner.

You is Becoming a Relative Term.

When I mean You I mean someone. I have come to realize that "You" no longer means exactly you. When i think about it, when I say I miss You or i wish You were here, i mean to say I wish my future love was here, I miss my future love. My future Husband. This character that has yet to reveal himself to me. I sing love songs to this person, I write about, dream about, fantasize about and end up utterly missing this unknown man. I see him, whoever he is, in different qualities you have, knowing that maybe this unknown entity has those same qualities that I value most in you. And I'm OK with that. As long as I know, and you know, that you no longer means You.
You did once fill the spot of You, and I loved you in that spot, but that's gone. I only every think about you when I analyse what You means to me, such as now. Or on the rare occasion when my guarded thoughts become ramped and I see you in the snow, or music, or cartoons, but I see that person there too, knowing He will care that I see him in these things. That I loved Him before I even knew Him. That I had my heart prepared to bond with his heart forever. This may make my next relationship all that much harder since I do seek You out, but i trust that He(this time I mean God) will protect me with the utmost care.
Since you are the only materialized version I have of any You I have ever known, I only think it natural to think of you occasionally when I think of You. You are the closest thing I have to You, but you are not You, and I know this now. I know this with more strength and determination that ever before.
Sometimes I think You is God, this person I dream of, but I know that relationship has to be a more worshipful and fearful one. Which in turn helps me to replace my idolization of You, bringing me back down out of the clouds into reality. I do belive You are out there. More now than ever. I cant wait to show You all of this, all of me. And again, I need to be placing this energy and passion into my relationship with God, the ultimate Him, for I know I will never have You without Him.

You no longer means You.
