Who Will Be......

When more than one man wants your love, but doesn't give love in return!

Lifes a journey of choices.

Voices plea for her love.

Cords of fear bound her

to realization she has to choose.

 

One tells her he will  be....

A handkerchief when tears

like sea billows flow.

Her air when she can't breathe.

 

The other tells her he will be....

A safe haven from the storms of life.

Glasses to help her find her way.

 

Deep wounds of decisions

bleed for her to pick.

Heavy heart breaks from the weight.

 

One tells her he will be....

Pills to take the pain away.

A pillow to lean her head on.

 

The other tells her he will be....

An alarm clock to keep her going.

A book she can't put down.

 

Her soul is darkened,

master problem is in charge.

Bottle of remedies she looks for.

 

One tells her he will be....

Her sweetness when she needs

a piece of chocolate.

A credit card to keep her happy.

 

The other tells her he will be....

Her shot full of spirit-booster.

A comedian to keep her laughing.

 

Personal life is infected

with promises.

She feels like she is connected

by dots, and they're about to

break apart.

 

One tells her he will be....

Arms that blanket her from harm.

Her light in the darkness.

 

The other tells her he will be....

A song she can't get out of her head.

A life vest that keeps her afloat

when sadness gets her down.

 

She wonders which one

will make love their home?

 

Asphalt faces with empty eyes

stare back at her.

Decision made, she turns

and leave in search of

who will be....

[Poetic Beauty]

No matter how many times I was approached I didn't want to be attached to anyone. I in my personal life at that time needed time to recover from the one prior. I think women at times feel like this. We don't want to be told by a man what they will do for us but we want to feel it deep inside want to see it with our eyes and heart. I like this for the statement it makes.

[SpokenWord]

Many times we say what we will be if this or that was to happen instead of being it right now in the present. Given the choice of what will be or could be vs what is well that decision should be clear. Now she was lucky to have so many to choose from in the first place :P and she made the right choice to reserve her choice for another day.
