My Poems

My high Standards

I was told my standards were high,

But I didn't understand why,

I just wanted someone to treat me right,

Someone to be my light,

In the darkness,

When I feel like I'm about to fall,

Into the abyss,

I want it all,

I want him to be smart,

And a sweetheart,

I was told my standards were high,

I still don't understand why,

I just want someone to be there,

No matter what I wear,

Or if there's a problem with my hair,

I just want someone in my life,

I don't have to be his wife,

Or with him in the afterlife,

I just want someone present,

Someone with a good scent,

Who doesn't leave me on sent,

I just want a man,

Not the ones that shove you in a van,

Or the ones that call you a fan,

I just want to love,

Someone who fits like a glove,

I just want to be with,

Someone who isn't a myth,

I just want to someone,

And not just anyone,

Someone who makes me feel whole,

Like I have meaning in my soul,

As I said,

I want him,

To make my heart feel red,

But people said my chances were slim,

And that my standards were high,

But I guess I'll never understand why.
