MEET MINE
(Who's your guy?)
How I Met Him.
Meeting him was a process, a journey.
I started meeting parts of him when I was 10yrs old.
I met parts of him in the books I read,
I met parts of him in all the guys I dated...
(Don't ask me how many)
I met the full package when I was 23.
I've loved him ever since.
He was not short, average, tall or physically disabled,
He was not slim, macho or fat,
He was not dark skinned, brown skinned or light skinned,
He was not poor, rich or wealthy.
And I loved him.
He is intelligent,
He is hard working,
He is kind, caring and compassionate,
He is humble,
He is brutally honest,
He is open minded,
He is supportive,
He has a rich sense of humor,
He makes mistakes and own them.
How could I not love him?
I see the sorrow behind his smile,
I see the love behind his anger,
I see the reason behind his silence.
So I love him.
I loved him long before I knew he was real.
And now that I know he exist,
How do I not love him?
I don't have to close my eyes to see him.
There is a face that my eyes lights up to whenever it catches a glimpse of it.
There is a voice that causes my lips to easily spread to a wide smile at the sound of it.
There is a body,
Made perfect in God's image,
And it's MINE.
