of sleeping alone, of waking up
to no one but myself.
I date, but it never
leads to anything long term.
For so long,
I've been looking for my type,
my ideal man.
Help me keep my eyes
and my heart open
to the possibilities
You place before me.
Help me look beyond
the women's magazines,
romance novels, and movies.
Help me find the real man, the willing soul,
who will accompany me,
even as I accompany him,
on the journey You have laid before us.
