My heart beats for love

In August i will be 19 years old, I have never been in love and never been kissed. I've never actually been in a relationship. (not for my lack of trying)I guess i just haven't met that special person who will take me for who i am. Sometimes i get a little down and ask myself "whats wrong with me? why haven't i found someone" HOWEVER i do believe that i will find that someone. As you all know i come from a family of divorce. My sisters have all seemed to have given up on Love, they say it only brings only saddness and pain but I know thats not true. I firmly believe in love. i love love. Love makes the world go 'round, it makes us happy, it makes us sad,it makes us FEEL. LOVE brings us together. and sure i haven't found my soulmate yet. but i have found love in so many other places. In music, in singing, in my family, in my friends and in EVERY single one of you. Knowing that love is out there keeps me going, and I will never stop trying to find my happy ending.
This is a really great and empowering song that i play for myself when im just about ready to give up it lifts me up, gives me hope and reminds me to never stop looking. I hope it does the same for you.


I've been stranded on a lonely street
Got lost in the shadows
Fell hard in the battle
heard The cries and the suffering
I walked through the darkness
Left broken and heartless

I'm calling out, can you hear my voice?
I'm gonna find you through all the noise
Ooh whoa
You know there's nothing that I wouldn't do
So shine your light as I reach for you

My heart beats for love
My heart beats for love
It's the sound that I hear, tells me not to give up
It breathes in my chest and
It runs through my blood
My heart beats for love
My heart beats for love

Whoa ooh oh oh oh yeah

And I've been told at least a thousand times
It's not worth the struggle, the hurt or the trouble
I keep running up to these front lines
No I won't surrender
I'll wait here forever

Standing here with my flag held high
Oh can't you see that it's worth the fight?

My heart beats for love
My heart beats for love
It's the sound that I hear, tells me not to give up
It breathes in my chest and
It runs through my blood
My heart beats for love
My heart beats for love

Whoa ooh oh oh oh yeah

I'm march across this battlefield
I'm screaming out, can you hear me now?
I'm holding on, I stand my ground
I'm screaming out, can you hear me?

My heart beats for love
My heart beats for love
It's the sound that I hear, tells me not to give up
It breathes in my chest and
It runs through my blood
My heart beats for love
My heart beats for love



with LOVE, Marissa<3
