A Man Named Brian
There was a self pinky swear that I couldn't forget,
"Enough of looking for a boyfriend after my 30th."
And that pinky swear has been obeyed,
Though I always seek for someone to be with.
Relationships went wrong,
Nobody gave me peace like home.
So then I stopped searching,
I let my heart rest from any breaking.
And when I decided to only wait for the one,
There's this man who came named Brian.
I wasn't looking for love when I knew him,
But love found me and my heart gave in.
I know and he knows that he's not my first,
But yes, he came before I reach my thirtieth.
He loves me and accepts me for who I am,
He's a perfect picture of my dream man.
Sometimes I ask myself if I really deserve him,
For he is too good to be true like I'm just dreaming.
But when he said; "For all the struggles that you've been through, you really deserve to be loved."
That's when I knew that he's the man that I never had.
I finally found someone who feels like home,
My heart is at peace and my life is at its bloom.
No words can express how happy and loved I am,
When I met and fell in love with this man named Brian.
I love the way he utters my name,
It's like music to my ears when he calls me "Jen."
I also love the way he talks,
It is so good just like his looks.
I love his lips especially when he smiles,
I love the way he looks at me with those pretty blue eyes.
But beyond the physical appearance of this man,
His character is what I really love about Brian.
He accepts me in his life with no hesitations,
He loves my flaws and my imperfections.
All he wants is just to see me being happy,
That makes me fall for him more each and every day.
Showing his love for me is very consistent,
The kind of love that I really dreamt.
He knows how many heartaches I had,
And I like the way he handles my heart with tender love.
He is the kind of man that I've been looking for,
A man who healed me and became my cure.
He knows how to handle me on my worst days,
He makes me smile when I'm about to frown at my face.
Brian is the kind of man with respect,
I love it when he considers my opinion in all decisions that he will make.
But there's one thing that I really love about Brian,
And that is when he includes me in his every plan.
