You say that I start trouble
and that there is drama constantly;
you say that I need too much,
and that the problems start with me.

But what you fail to realize
is that I know what’s going on;
You see,  I had a vision of what I wanted…
way before you came along.

I pictured a man who can make me melt
in a solitary glance;
a man who can sweep me off my feet,
with adoration and romance.

A man who will help me up
when the world pushes me down;
a man who can ease my mind,
without a single sound.

A man who will always tell me
what’s really on his mind;
and share with me his frustrations,
knowing I won’t leave him behind.

A man who is warm and compassionate
letting his feelings flow to me;
not afraid to show his heart,
and trust me with the key.

A man who will be fair
when things get out of hand;
a man who can accept his defeats,
and when he has to, take a stand.

A man who is strong enough
to reveal his weaknesses to me;
a man who is not perfect,
but knows I will love him endlessly.

Maybe what I am looking for
is not my destiny;
Maybe what I seek out,
is all part of a fantasy.

But to believe that is to believe
that I am settling for less;
and then I must live forever,
knowing my heart chose second best.

So if you do not see yourself
being the man that I need;
then I must continue on my search,
for the man who lives in my dreams.

Lady Lost,
  You go girl! The impossible dream is only impossible when you believe it is. Good luck on your search! Good Poem. (Sorry I'm Mr. White, not Mr. Right, LOL)

Ooo, Bethy, This is so good! I always tell, don't settle for second best, ever. You deserve the best, always. Fabulous poem,
beautifully written as well. Love, Mom

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

When you know what you want why settle for anything less.  Best of luck in finding your dream.  You have the best of luck wished from me.   Great Job I love reading your writing and look forward to more.

I love the way your poem rhymes. You have clearly asked what you seek. I am 5"11, brown skin, just kidding. If you liked my poem "Woman" , then you will like my "Future Wife" better which is in the forum  Dark Passion #1. If you have time, check it out. Till then keep on writing.< !signature-->
