My Dream Date
I hope it isn't asking for too much
When I envision a dream date
In the form of a romantic dinner
With a well behaved chap,
Who will be able to respect me;
From the facets that make me up
To the flaws that decorate my personality;
And who will not be bent up
On seeking in me, a girl his mother
Wishes me to be!
I hope it isn't asking for too much
To be holding hands and gazing at the stars
With someone who will be able to love me
For who I am just as I will be loving him
For who he is without changing anything in him!
Yet, he will have to be someone who will be
Ready to follow me from time to time
In those areas which I would know best
And even understand my apprehensions
If I sometimes refuse to follow him
And do things his way!
The most important part of it
Would have to be that my dream date
Accepts, acknowledges and even bows down
To the fact that I am a maiden completely lost
In love with my God and that He remains the one
Destination to which I am headed to after my death
Even if my dream date will be giving me a side
In this frivolous world!
I hope my dream date does not remain a mere whim,
A fantasy, a figment of the imagination,
But it is said that every shoe must be paired
With another,
So I try to enjoy hopping meanwhile
While waiting for my pair to be able to start walking!
