I'm Yours

I first heard this song about a night ago, and I fell absolutely in love with it. What more to melt a heart than a soft acoustic serenade saying 'I'm Yours', or having your partner being there for you through it all, and still letting you know that you're still 'a soldier in your(their) eyes' even when you're at your weakest?

Even though you know you may not have the softest touch, say the words as such, though you may not look like much, be rough around the edges or you never feel like you're quite enough, that person's still always there - healing the scars over time, embracing your soul and loving your mind.

Somehow, I think you know growing old feels fine when your other half loves the lines on your face and still loves the look in your eyes. =)

Okay, enough of my talk, I'm sorry I can't find any official videos to this song, this was the best one already, but it's the song that really matters, do take a listen, I've placed a copy of the lyrics just after the video, oh yes, remember to just pause the song playing on the blog! (it's at the bottom of the right sidebar) I hope you guys will love this song as much as I do!

Love,

I dedicate this to you, I know this song will speak to your heart.

I'm Yours

You've touched these tired eyes of mine
And mapped my face out line by line
And somehow growing old feels fine
I listen close for I'm not smart
You wrap your thoughts and works of art
And there hanging on the walls of my heart.

I may not have the softest touch
I may not say the words as such
And though I may not look like much
I'm yours.

And though my edge is maybe rough
I never feel I'm quite enough
And it may not seem like very much
But I'm yours.

You healed these scars over time
Embraced my soul, you loved my mind
You're the only angel in my life.

The day the news came, my best friend died
My knees went weak, and you saw me cry
Say I'm still the soldier in your eyes.

I may not have the softest touch
I may not say the words as such
And though I may not look like much
I'm yours.

And though my edge is maybe rough
I never feel I'm quite enough
And it may not seem like very much
But I'm yours.

I may not have the softest touch
I may not say the words as such
And though I don't fit in that much
But I'm yours.

What is That?

I came across this Greek short film, made in 2007, and it absolutely touched my heart. There are lots of definitions to what Love is, or what Love should be. Its a simple film, but to me, this film captures the essence of Love and what it means to me. It's not about flowers, chocolates or sweet-nothings, neither is it an emotion with just one facet. I hope it touches your heart, just as it touched mine. =)

With Love,
Raxsiel

Love is patient, Love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preserves."
-- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Excerpts from Seventeen

Ways to Tell He'll be a Good Boyfriend

He Makes You Laugh
Laughing at the same jokes means you understand each other on a very deep level - it's like the foundation on which strong relationships are built.

He Confides in You
A guy who tells you things he hides from his friends, like his stress over a bio test, trusts you. He's connecting on a personal level because he wants to strengthen the relationship.

He Asks you Questions
When he takes an active interest in your life, it says that he respects the things that are important to you. He values your opinion and wants you to be an equal in the relationship

He Disagrees with You
A guy who argues a little isn't afraid to be himself around you - he'll never be an annoying lapdog. If he lets you disagree with him, it shows he's a good communicator, which makes it easier to work through any future issues!
