Chapter One

    "Blind Date"

    From the moment I saw you
    I knew I was out of your league.
    Everything about you was captivating,
    from your posture and stride
    to the light illuminating your unstrained eyes.
    The vision was more than worth your time with me.

    You could have left me standing there,
    for being seen with me would be far beneath you,
    but the way you smiled greeting me at your door
    and the light in your eyes
    as you stared unblinkingly into mine
    are not the things from which realities are made.

    There was no frown when I introduced myself,
    no revealing sign that questioned
    what you had gotten yourself into.
    Nor did you hesitate
    when I opened the car door for you
    and you were kind enough to unlock mine.

    You laughed genuinely at my stammering attempt to joke
    and listened patiently as I struggled past your beauty
    to find the words to express myself to you.
    And when I couldn't find the words,
    you filled the empty spaces with questions of your own,
    giving hope to an awkward evening.

    You didn't laugh at my hopes
    nor scoff at my dreams,
    and when those far more suited beckoned for your attention,
    your eyes stayed locked on me.
    When you spoke, the sound of your voice
    was like a soothing melody to my ears,
    a sound that I can surely groove to.

    You complimented my shortcomings
    and overlooked my errors,
    giving testament to the classy woman you are.
    And when you let me down,
    it was with the ease of a feather,
    with the kindness of a comforting angel.

    And when I paused at your doorstep,
    you took my hand and kissed me,
    sending a wave of warmth and confidence through me.
    I never did feel rejected in the end
    or the repulsiveness one feels being sorely put down

    Through my defeat you left me victorious
    and kept my manhood intact
    for the time when the right woman enters my life.
    You are truly a lady,
    which is why I thank you
    for allowing a dreamer to dream.


    I Am That Man

    You told me you needed someone
    to love and comfort you.
    Someone who could meet your standards,
    to love you, like you need him to.
    Someone you can trust to follow
    and protect you along the way.
    Someone who will be there for you
    at any moment of the day.

    You said he had to have compassion
    and tend to your every need.
    He had to have a heart that's giving
    and not one filled with greed.
    You said he had to listen
    to the things that you confess.
    He couldn't be just any man,
    he had to be the best.

    You said you need a man of God
    to help direct your path.
    Not someone who is superficial,
    but someone who'll make love last.

    I am that man who loves you,
    that man who'll see you through
    and dedicate my life to you
    the way God created me to.


    Hey You

    Hey you,
    With that hourglass figure,
    from where did you come?
    Were you molded up in Heaven
    by the hands of the almighty one?

    Were you fashioned on his anvil
    with his hammer and his rod?
    Did the angels began to sing
    when he gave his approving nod?

    Did he break your precious mold
    after proclaiming he was through
    as a testimony to the world
    there will be no other like you?

    Hey you,
    With those lovely shaped eyes
    that only God could make.
    Like the round ocean pearls
    he also creates.

    Tell me what those beautiful eyes see.
    Are they visions of another?
    Are they visions of me?
    Can I court you for your love,
    or am I too late
    for this once in a lifetime...
