Only a fool rushes one to love them, we know it takes time to grow...As a flower needs sunshine and water, our hearts need space also you know.
If something is bound too tight it cant move,no way to spread open its wings..Love will come to those who await..if it's kindness and patients it brings.
So take it slow,and be willing to wait..nothing good comes from a decision made in haste.
Start out as friends, get to know who your talking to,there is plenty of time to do what you want to do.
Love will come dear one..no need to fret..But slow and steady wins the race, and you'll have no regrets.
I too used to be in a hurry you see, but Iv'e learned to just love being with me!!!!

About this poem:
well I know a few that want everything right now...and I just feel it is a big mistake!!!
I agree it's silly that we say we learn from our mistakes but yet make the most common ones of all over and over, I guess it is better in ways over putting up barriers to keep people out.Im no professional but I would think one should have understanding of their true heart and I always say there is no movement in rushing.

Very wise, JG. Afterall, it's how things used to be done and they seemed to last better then.

Yes JG but every situation is different and lonliness can make a person do some unwise things. Loving yourself is always important though. Great read and write!
