Measure of a man...

Measure Of A Man

If one day you discover him
Broken down
He's lost everything
No cars, no fancy clothes
To make him who he's not
The woman at his side
Is all that he has got

Why do you ask him
Move heaven and earth
To prove his love has worth?

Would he walk on the water?
Would he run through fire?
Would he stand before you
When it's down to the wire?
Would he give his life up
To be all he can?
Is that how you measure a man?

If by chance all he had to give you
Was three words wrapped around your finger
Would that be deep enough
At the end of everyday?
And how will you ever know
If the man is what he says?

Why do you ask him
Move heaven and earth
To prove he his love has worth?

Would he walk on the water?
Would he run through fire?
Would he stand before you?
When it's down to the wire?
Would he give his life up
To be all he can?
Is that how you measure a man?

He never gives up
Let's go of his dreams
His world goes around
For his one true belief
Is that how you know?
Is that what it means?

Will he be your anchor
When the dark unfolds?
Will he always love you
The best that he knows?
Would he give his life up
To be all he can?
Is that how you measure a man?

Yea... how will you know if a man is what he says? I guess it is hard to measure a man. Many of them are just using words as a powerful weapon to tame women. Like women are some kind of creatures that needs to be praised and flattered all the time. Well, the fact is, many of women don't even like those kinda flaterring and seducing words from men. I personally do not say that i hate being flaterred, but i don't expect men to lie just to false flattering me.

Lately... well, let just say last couple of weeks... I hadn't talk to someone. Someone who is once close enough to be called an-about-to-be-boyfriend friend. I purposely ignore him; his presence, existence, words, and actions. Call me anything, but i just fed up with that guy. Talking or interacting with him would only make me cynical. You know, saying words cynically...or slap him. So help me God. I don't know if I want to fix any of this situation or let it be like this for good. Erasing him from my life, my memory and just act like we were never be friends. I never tell this to anyone, but deep down I must say that he hurted me. And I do not care if he wants to continue acting like that to girls, but i will not be a part of it. If i wanna say it in bad words: now i can understand why his girlfriend left him and married to someone else. Who can put up with a guy who can talk the sweetest crap to any girl, and advance in lying. I will never believe or take any of his words as true again. For example, if u ask him "where were you?" and he answers, "nowhere, just here"... you'd never feel 100% sure that he was just there. I mean, how can u live with someone like that? Well, i once like him (coz his patiency, attentions, supports had melted me) in a way, but now he just invented a brand new me: a woman who will never buy any of guys crap anymore (even though they are saying it from the heart...as if!). He invented a brand new cynical me, who thinks that 90% of guys are trash-mouthed. So, fuck with him.... I just sorry i ever liked him and actually wanna be with him...

Next, i also realized that in our lives sometimes we do have secret admirer. I mean, not in a freaky or agresive way (even though i'm sure some you might have), but in a soft way. The softest way. Someone who cares for us, and like us for the way we are, but never expecting/hoping anything. Someone who thought that we are out of their league and do not even have the slightest hope to be with us. Sometimes meeting those kinda people makes our lives easier and fun to lived ^-^ I get a lot of helps from friends like them. And i appreciate them for being such a gentlemen.
