One

what do i do
but sit here and thing about you
why can't there every really be someone there
someone who will be beside me
take care of me
and hold me through the good and bad
keep me safe and make me laugh 
to put a smile on my face 
even on the dreariest days
someone who can love me for me
one who can make me feel special.
someone who will bring me a single rose
just because its Tuesday.
or take me out just because.
one who will compliment me at my worst
is there any person of the male species 
that is like that.
one who isn't dead, taken or gay?
all i'm asking is for one guy
one gentleman,
Just One.
to make a difference.
