to settle for what my
mind deems logical.
there's a nothing logical
or rational about love
because of love
pillowcases are drowned
in the tears of the heart's
realization that the love
of yesterday is the heartache
and pain of tomorrow
see, i dont want the
typical love. i dont
want the cliche scenerio
i met him at the club
i met him in class
i met him at the grocery store
i want that created love
you know when God
took the rib of Adam
and created Eve
i want that for me.
tired of watching movies
wishing that kind of love
was real
tired of crying myself
to sleep wondering if i'm
going to be just another
black woman, growing
older, growing wiser,
and more alone.
I want that moment
when a man, a real man
can look at me and say
i love you without
even parting his lips
i want the love
that can only come
from God himself
I want him, my man
whoever he may be
to care, to desire, to uplift
to love unconditionally as i do
i believe in my heart that
God will reveal him to me
and for whatever reason i
feel that he, him, my man
is not you.
