Hard to find a good man

Been starting to wonder,it's really making me worry,
is there a man with a soul,who'll look at me and understand?
Won't have to say a word....Take my hand when I stumble
Help me up when I fall
Won't get in my way,but will cheer me on
Tell me I'm pretty and don't be afraid to walk tall

He'll have to be no stranger to patience,strong so he'll Love me, good'n'bad'n'all
Hope he's blessed with courage and pride
I'll make him feel at ease,so in me he will want to confide

Eager to please is not a bad quality to have

Trying to find so many things in just one man,will end up driving me mad

Seems like all the good guys get fucked over,so now they act bitter and bad

If I looked really hard,what are my chances of finding him?

A mate who will remember our anniversary without me having to remind him
Hard to find a good man to surround me with Love,he'll feel alive just being around me

If I meet him,into his arms I will dive

Showing me respect is how he will win my heart
From that day on never feeling alone,even when we're apart
It would be oh so nice to have a partner in life
Even after 65 years,and still happy he made me his wife
Together we could lean on,nothing we wouldn't be able to take on
Always having each other to depend on

From now on when I dream of him,I'll keep my eyes open
Don't want to miss what could possibly be the LAST GOOD MAN!

    Yep, a hard man is good to find...

    ...if he also has unconditional love too. TBL, I really like the honest outpouring of hopes in this poem - to me it means that the poet's courage and determination to find what she's looking for just might pay off. Time will tell, I guess; but without a dream, how can a dream come true?
    The poem might be tightened up or shortened up somewhat so it has even more impact, but I still enjoyed reading and being moved by its emotions; nicely, tenderly written - a good read for me! And...best of luck.

    good luck

    loved your poem and this is a sentiment a lot of good women have however being a man I think your expectations might be too high. I know how we are.
