Perfect Man

Dianna Poems I searched my whole life, for the perfect man, No one seemed to measure up, And I didn't understand, Why part of me was empty, Why I still felt cold. Would it be this way forever? WouId I feel the same when I'm old? After searching my whole life, The perfect man I couldn't see. I couldn't take it anymore, I said Lord help me please. He said look deep inside you, The answer was always there. I couldn't tell you how to feel, It was your cross to bare. I did as a lord had asked, I looked deep inside. A calmness on overwhelmed me, My heart was filled with pride. The answer was always there, The truth I always had. I didn't have to look at all, The perfect man is my dad.
