I Have Waited

Yes I've waited 

For a man whose shoulders are strong enough to carry my dreams when my hopes fall silent

For someone who can carry the weight of my laugh, my smile, my pains and tears

Yes I've waited 

For a King, a Chief, a Commander, a Boss, a General, a Champion 

Yes I've waited 

For a sweep me off my feet, protector of my heart, one of a kind amidst the carbon copies

For someone who listens like my story is the only one that matters

Yes I've waited

For a Supporter, a Partner, a Confidant, a Companion, a Sidekick, a Friend

Yes I've waited

For the one who makes me feel the strength of his touch while enveloped in his softness

For someone that knows to hold me till after the storm, knowing when I cry, it rains

Yes I've waited 

For a Lover, an Equal, a Healer, a Soul Mate, a Comfort, a Match

Yes, I've waited

And those that think I've waited too long do understand to where he comes

To me, who has waited

Who aims to please, to cater, to attend to his every need

To see to a desire, a want, a wish.

To help fulfill his dream and complete his puzzle

To be his treasure, his first thought and his last kiss

In the end to find that he too has waited for me the same

I have waited......................
