Complex
Do not forget to remember that every single person you meet, whether male or female is a complete person.
Just like you, they have hopes and dreams; weaknesses and strengths; people they love; people who love them; things they love to do; things they hate to do; things they cannot wait to do; people they cannot wait to meet; people they hate to meet; likes and dislikes; interests and hobbies; good and bad; a past, a present and most importantly, a future.
You did not make anyone who they are.

Will she come?
Because I miss Softie
all evening he waited
anxiously eyeing the clock
retracing his steps
over and over
counting the minutes
until her arrival
kneeling before a crackling fire
adding another log
he rose to check again
his preparations for tonight
the thick sheepskin rug
lay lovingly spread before the flames
waiting for her
the book
the one she longed after
in that tiny shop downtown
rested on the warm stone hearth
waiting for her
the wine
that special bottle
from a few years ago
late fall harvest
sat open
and sweet
waiting for her
the glasses
his best crystal
sat sparkling in the firelight
waiting for her
his hand
stopped a moment
over his heart
and lovingly fingered
the prize there
hidden away in his pocket
where it lay
waiting for her
taking the ring
from its secret place
he gazed at it
mesmerized by its shine
by what it stood for
soon he smiled and
softly slipped it back
to its repose
where it lay
waiting for her
seating himself back on the chair
he resumed his vigil
over the fire
over the wine
over the clock
over himself
and he sat
quiet and lost in thought
waiting for her
