People judge
as we walk down the street
an ambitious educated woman like me
and a guy living from pay check to pay check
are hugging and kissing
in the eyes of people
thats not the way my life is meant to be
I'm meant for the 6 figured, suit and tie
and a Mercedes for a ride
type of guy
and he is seen as the
baby mama drama
no life, no ambition
and a criminal record to back it all up
no no no were not meant to fall in love
I do admit the way we meet
wasn't the whole love at first sight
but getting to know this guy
as well as him knowing me
takes time and a battle to fight
and yet he has proven to be just right
He can't afford the top things in life
at least the top things in other peoples life
but yet when he comes to see me
and there is groceries, a hot bath and a movie
he knows thats all he needs to complete me
to me the high things in life
are the simple things
a red rose sent to me
just because its a certain day of the week
dinner picnic style by candlelight
makes me love him all night
a voice-call at 1 o'clock in the morning
for me to hear when I awake
makes me have the best day
driving just to drive
he knows will keep a smile on my face
and this is why
he is just right
no secrets, no surprises
upfront from the beginning
absolutely no lying
I can ask him anything
and know its the truth
unlike other men used to do
I'm used to the heartbreaks
the jerks, and the tears
oh the many guys I've dated over the years
and yet all along I never wanted to realize
that the right guy was sitting
right in front of my eyes
another reason of why he is just right
I was home sick
in bed with a fever of 102
and he stayed with me
the whole night
and even made me soup
he sang, he held, he kissed
even in the mist of me having to go to the toilet
he didn't care
he said thats what for sickness and health
means in marriage vowels
you can imagine how I felt
as I laid down that night
I realized he is just right
Anything I need he will bend
fowards and backwards to get
even though I can get it on my own
he lets me know
I can get it
it might just take a little time
but I'll save and won't need a loan
he takes me on trips
weekend spontaneous trips
sometimes its fun in the sun at the beach
and sometimes its learning the history
no matter what it is
he finds a little way of letting me know
this is real love
from the heavens and further up above
and I prove once again
that he is just right for me
he knows its hard for me
school and a career blooming
and everything else in place
and yet he stands
being ever so patient
he never nags, or gets up-set
because we both know
as he says it
its a hustle to get what you want
in this world
and true love will be there no matter what
and hearing that
is all I ever wanted to hear
from a man...
a man no one expected
could be something other than a criminal
is the love of my life
a man who is proving each and everyday
that he will be somebody
has everybody hating him
a man so tall, sexy with chiseled features
is yet so patient, soft and loving
and yet to me is the best teacher
teaching me everyday about the world
damn thank you God, for making me his girl
he don't care what
people, friends, family and enemies say
and neither do I
because at the end of the day
he comes to see me
and grabs me in his arms
holds me
kisses me
talks to me
and reassures me
as he rubs my feet
thats its the time we have now
and the love that we share
and the heart and love that we both feel
thats keeps us both connected each and everyday
and if somehow it shall fail
then we will know
what we both did and carry on with our lives
but as long as we got the
heart, the soul, and everything else in between
our walls of unity and love
will never fall
but you only get one true love
and I believe God sent you me
because your just
right for me.
