"You don’t love someone for their looks, or their clothes or for their fancy car,
but because they sing a song only you can hear." Oscar Wilde


Poem Artwork

I fell in love
For the last time
With someone who
Is both a shy little boy
And a man who knows
Who he is
And what he wants.
He says he's looking for
A woman of quality,
Who is kind
And honest,
And strong
And gentle,
Who knows the meaning
Of loyalty
And devotion.
My friends say
He is describing me,
But he can't
Or won't
See beyond
My physical shortcomings.
Perhaps he is also
Shallow and
All too human,
Or maybe, perhaps
He has just been
Brainwashed
Into believing
That the perfect woman
Is perfect on the outside
As well as in.
Poor man!
He looks straight at me
Everyday, but
He cannot,
Or will not, see
That sometimes
The perfect gift
Is the one
In plain wrapping.

If he cannot see beyond physical shortcomings he is a shallow man and not one a deep woman would be happy with. Beautiful poem. There are men who look beyond faults and see the true beauty of a woman, there will be one of those for you, Rebecca.

If you are looking for advice, you might take
it from Oscar Wilde. Send your guy this poem with the
message "Would you like me to sing you these words?"

Sadly this is all too true. A lot of people need the "Perfect" person and all too often refuse to see what they are truly passing by. Even when they have short comings of their own whether it be physical, emotional or financial imperfections but they think a partner should not have them. Well said my friend.
