Game Over

 

 

I'll never get married" I said.

That was 20 years ago

I dated a few guys, yeah

but I always entered the relationship

with one foot out the door.

 

I played all the games and broke their hearts

up to 5 at a time...

See, I've always believed that guys are only looking for one thing

and they're only looking out for themselves and

didnt really know what love really was

But then again , I didn't know either...

So I said early on that I would never give my heart out that way..

 

that is.. until I met him.

Let me tell you

He has a smile that brightens my entire day

His words are like sweet

caresses to my soul and

did I tell you about his rich

chocolate skin?.... mmm mm.

And so now I'm done for.

 

I mean, I'm even willing to stay at home

barefoot and pregnant as my mom would say..

but he doesnt want that for me..no.

He wants me to walk in my destiny and

he wants us to wait 'till we get married...

WHAT?!

 

This dude is so fly, you dont understand!

He makes me want to write poetry like

Jill Scott

or sing like

Lauren Hill

(sing)

"Strumming my face with his fingers"

 

This man is so fly,

he makes me want to

cook and

clean and

bake and

not just that

but has broken the walls of my

heart..

the walls of my heart..

 

and

now I can't ever let go and

now I will love him and

now he can stop fighting for my heart...

..my heart..

 

oh, and one more thing..

when I met him..

he said that God told him

I was his wife...

 and I've heard that before

except he didnt say that to get in my pants

as a matter a' fact he

wanted to get in my soul..

so now I'm done for..

and all I can say is

game over.

This is ALL about my man... the man of my dreams. :)

This is a sweet poem. I like your image of him and your feelings. I think it's great to have a set of values that control your destiny, and to feel a warmth and understand unique only to you. The sentiment of game over made me laugh. I've been there and know that it's a great feeling to have someone special. Having romance with a man or woman is a great experience and although waiting is a powerful statement, it's not the same and can be misleading.

Love is the capture of moments that stick with you and merge two hearts as you describe your man. I believe you found that one special person and I could also tell by your words that a certain magic control your relationship�that's unique. Wonderful write

This poem is as a song to me. I enjoyed the flow and your description of how committed you are to him. You have definately found love and I am so happy for you. You are blessed!

Your words are beautiful here.

This came straight from the hip of your heart...

soulfully honest....women of today seem so stuck on being inependant...
rather than ....INTER-ependant...
then worry why ??? their marriages fail ?

" ((( He wants me to walk in my destiny )))" ~~~~~ that...THAT ...is what I'm talkin' about

You are both blessed
