                        "Parking Space"

I don't want to double-park in an area.

I want to park my love inside of a heart.

If I see a spot that is taken away,

Then it will not break me apart.

Its hard to find the perfect spot.

I will go at a steady pace.

I'm not going to be impatient.

I know its right in front of my face.

When I see an area that is empty.

I am going to enter it with no fear.

I look at the rear view mirror.

To make sure no one comes near.

My love can't be ticketed.

My love can't be towed away.

It makes you feel happy.

Its always here to stay.

Agreed. It's hard to find the perfect spot because there's only one perfect spot and all other "spots" are second fiddle. Like many of us my quest continues, some spots take longer to find but I suspect that it'll be worth the wait; many of us talk/write about love although we've never really experienced it in all its splendor--romantic love, that is--and we idealize it. Like the song by Foreigner says, "I wanna know what love is...." I've had a glimmer of it before and finding my "Parking Space" is what keeps me going. Good analogy.
