I'm Searching For A Love

I’m searching for a love
A love
A love
Where are you?
I’m looking in all the right places
The right places
The right places
Or am I?
I can’t seem to find you anywhere
Anywhere
Anywhere
Or did I?
Or have I already missed you?
Have you passed me along?
I can’t help but think that you are gone
If not, when you come into my life
I can’t wait for you to upgrade me
Teach me about those things that I could never imagine
Like the galaxies above and this thing we call love
I’m searching for a love to hold me tight
I can’t breathe because he protects me
Keeps me in his prayers because he’s God fearing
I want someone who knows the meaning behind poetry
So when he speaks it’s heaven that flows off of his lips
Like silky milk chocolates
I’m searching for a love that is confident in himself
Such that my strong personality won’t emasculate his masculinity
I’m searching for a clean cut man
Not those baggy jeans and white tees and flashy jewelries and aye shawty’s
I’m searching for a love draped in intelligent sheets
I’m searching for a love who wants to have seeds
And water them
Not leave them to dry up because he’s not nurturing
I’m searching for a love that isn’t afraid to tap into his feminine side
Show me that he can cry rivers
I’m searching for a love that is stern in his words
But not with his fists
Because abusive men is overrated
I’m searching for a love that is caring and understanding
Of how my insecurities can sometimes get the best of me
I’m searching for a love that is motivating
That his steps are radiating positivity
That his actions get my spirit jumping
With the Holy Ghost
I’m searching for a love that looks like a God and I am his Goddess
That treats me like a Queen of Egypt
I’m searching for a love that can respect my independence
And know that I got mine
And not get intimidated
I’m searching for a man not a boy
Someone who has learned to put childish things away
And lives to seize the day
I’m searching for a love that is stable financially
And don’t have to ask, “aye baby, can you lend me a $50”
I’m searching for a love that is well accomplished
He doesn’t have to be rich, but his wealth is overrunning
Like the Atlantic ocean before global warming
I’m searching for a love that’s on his grown man tip
That when we lay in the bed his every touch is orgasmic
I’m searching for a love that knows he is a want and not a need
And won’t take advantage of me and my virginity
And believes in monogamy
I’m searching for a love who’s body is like that of a Greek God
Because he treats it like a temple that’s non sacrificial
I’m searching for a love that can cook
Because he understands that I missed that lesson
So goes to work in the kitchen
I’m searching for a love that is hard working towards his goals
And doesn’t let anyone knock him off his toes
Because he knows what he wants in life
I’m search for love whose smile is so bright
That it’s my night light in the mist of darkness
I’m searching for a love that will work through the hard times
Because divorce is not a choice
I’m searching for a love that will put a ring on this finger
And we wed until death do us part
Whose vows are renewed with every kiss
Because his lips upon mine equals heaven’s bliss
I’m searching of a love whose penis enters this vaginal canal
That makes my body go senile with every thrust
That I burst into tears that are euphoric
I'm searching for a love and I hope I can find it
I won’t dumb down my rubric
Because all these things in my love I know I deserve it
So I will keep searching for a love
A love
A love
Where are you?
I am looking
Looking
Looking
Come find me?
And if this is you
You
You
Come have me!
