Love?

When will I have love?

The ones that the pretty little songs love to swoon over

I find it impossible to find the real deal

Like the ones from the books of endless dances

Movies of letter writing and poem readings

It's a drag not knowing when someone will dip me and tell me "why you look beautiful tonight"

Tell me a story of forever love

Where I can't recognize the smile in the mirror

Will I be the cheer on someone's day?

Their prayer on a Sunday morning?

Grab my hand and run with me to my surprise

Surprise of a knee and a "I Love You"

Perhaps Love isn't what God has in store for me

But to know what he has makes me all the more eager.
