honestly
I know exactly what I want
who I want
how I want him
this respect,
admiration,
attraction
is just the beginning
of the journey
the learning
that I hope for
dream of
want
truthfully
he pleases my eye and feeds my mind
not just fine, but savvy and a gentleman to the utmost
nobody’s perfect but the good is all I see right now
all the finer points of personality displayed
I see in the distance this chocolate star
intensity of intellect is my motivation
following this stellar compass
to a destination I hope for
putting a face to my visions
really
this is it
tall
handsome
intelligent
spiritual
kind
helpful
TCB
the qualities
that move me
are many
too many
to list
frankly
I know that this is mostly fantasy
something to shoot for
and what I long for
a pleasant hallucination
just a fixation to have a direction
a gold standard by which to measure
any future encounters

so... thinking about one friend back east got me thinking of another friend back east... and this poem was the result.
(this one doesn't have a rhythm inspired by a song but the sentiment was somewhat inspired by listening to Jill Scott's The Way)
