Lost in depression
There isn't a single person that I know that got over being depressed. Depression is common, it comes in all shapes and forms. We need to be aware of this. Keep your eyes and ears open to those around you that you love. Look for the signs of them spending more and more time alone or less talking with you. Listen to the words coming out of their mouth, making sure they aren't harmful words. Depression is a killer just like any other mental disorder, be aware because when you least expect it you get snatch up.

Expecting Too Much
There is such thing as expecting too much but also there should be standards. The simple things shouldn't be the issue and a relationship is two people not one. If I wanted to date myself then I wouldn't be looking for a man to spend my life with nor would any of you be looking for a life partner. It might seem easy but every relationships is complicated, it is how you approach it, brain storm through it it, and how much you allow the negative to affect the positive. You are never expecting too much and if you are told that then that person isn't for you! Change your standards for no one. Know that is it okay to say, "No" when necessary.

Love
We are all so quick to judge from the outside inward. We are quick to fall in love with actions before knowing someone. As you read this poem, think about why you love the person you are dating, married to, or in a relationship with. Consider what love means to you and your partner. Is it lust or is it love?

Tramp
Tramp??? That word gets taken out of context or misused when men don't get what they want or are getting what they want from a women. You are a tramp if you are with your intentions, your a tramp when you aren't, etc. It isn't that a woman doesn't know what she wants or is spiritually a mess, it's that you aren't providing and being true with your own intentions. A woman doesn't need a man to support her (would be nice because that is a true relationship), a woman doesn't need a man to be promiscuous (tramp) to get what she wants when now a days most jobs are open to women and not just men. However, I been accused of doing just that even though I've held my own for years. At the end of it all I know that my intentions don't make me a tramp. I know I paid for what I needed and made the decisions that needed to be made. I know that the choices I've made have been stupid ones but you can't take those choices back. You have to grow from them.
