I Want Through a Man

Man, Man, Man,

I want to purr every night,
hum like a bird.
Feel his warm commitment,
a man that loves,
he is not faint hearted.
A man that is brave,
sure of what he started.

Not scared of the future,
committed to stay,
sure of his desire,
unable to sway.

I want him here with me,
I want him today.

I'm in want of a lot now,
easy to disappoint.

I don't really care,
disappointments a good one,
it remembers to say,
"Don't go down that road - it's not the way!"

Disappointment can lead you the best way to go,
get it right next time,
you just never know!

Such a beautiful poem this is, sometime it happens that a person can no longer wait and end up taking a bad decision which they later regret,wait and wait, I am sure that one day you ll fine the person you are looking for, a perfect one, and then your life will become beautiful, just wait and keep your eyes open that when he comes, you don t realize it, good luck and have a nice day
