Musings of a Woman in Love
You gotta be
Have to be
Are the Only
one
…Only one. Only
One
That can get this out of me
Flows out of me
So easily
The flow of poetry
You gotta be
Have to be
Are the only
One.
Once upon a time there was you
And then providence sent me
And then there were two
Two.
Two hearts that beat as one.
I know this is true
Because
One time I was laying on your chest
And our hearts they were beating in sync
Instinct-ively
I knew you were the one for me
You gotta be
Have to be
Are the only
One.
My intellect isn’t easily moved
Doesn’t easily groove
To the beat of someone’s else genius
I’m hardly impressed
Though easily amused
I’m smile a lot cause it’s cool
The way truth seems so funny to me
But for real you’re the only dude
That can stimulate thought and passion the way you do
In this thoughtful heart of mind (mine)
Soul All the way engaged
Intellect, Will, Emotions combined
I think I love you
I choose to love you
I feel this love for you
It all stems from deep inside
A deeper part of me
One I’ll only let you see
And just to prove it here’s a confession
Listen
I never liked the jealous type
So why is it that the green-eyed monster
Creeps into my bed at night?
Truth is
I’m envious of your future wife
And the women you see on the daily
Part of me is like
This isn’t right? This is crazy
I know the good the bad and the ugly
If I’m falling for him
It’s not because I believe the hype
…And perhaps Angel Taylor has it right
“You’re not even human
Just a lovely idea of one...who I accidentally loved”
I accidentally loved My lovely idea personified, and if you're not all I've thought you up to be then that's alright
Because this is true
Then I expect too much of you
And what I’m demanding you can’t supply
I've no intentions for this to be
A one way street
I’ll give and give and give
Until you have all of me
Satisfied?
But I will only operate with in my rights
No usurping, no rebelling, no strikes
Because I want to bowl a strike
Outside of you is an even larger target
And I need to hit the bullseye
Your physical I’m cool with
But I’m more attracted to your mind
That’s what I’m more in tune with
That’s what I’m more in swoon with
Even when we don’t see eye to eye
Which one would think would be a rare occurrence
Since you’re so much taller than I
Never mind
All I’m saying is you’re pretty fly
And I’m hoping one day we can be each other’s “mine”
You make me feel like a monarch
All these butterflies
Here’s my word
I will play my role
Good friend
Girlfriend
Wife
I’m not trying to be selfish
My estrogen is tripping over itself
I can’t help it
And the love we produce
My promise to you
Won’t be horded
Honestly it costs too much
We can’t afford it
But we can share it
We can live it
Whatever problems there are in marriage
We can fix it
But this is me mixing
Hope and fantasy
But since its my reality
That makes it faith
The God who can orchestrate all things
If its His will
Will make a way
If not
Pray that my husband inspires me the same way
