My Woman

Let us just be realistic,

I don't want you to go the moon and back for me,

We are past that,

Furthermore if you go,

who will be with me before you are back?

I don't want you to swim in the oceans for me,

what if you drown?

or a shark attack happens?

I'm no pessimist but..

I don't want to introduce you to my friends,

as the one who makes me not sleep,

I want to say you are the source of my happiness,

I want to disrupt you from meetings with my texts,

I want to be make your workmates curious who I am,

You are the one who I want to take photos of,

Have wild selfies with you,

I want to have embarassing photos of you,

I want you to make me like a robot,

Unable to disrespect my master,

You may be a Sunday afternoon for six days,

And a Friday evening for one day,

But still I don't find you boring,

I want my mum to ask me,

"How did you do it"

You make me feel wanted,

I make you feel needed,

I want the pastor to free his time,

For a wedding he has not yet heard of,

I want our parents to bless our marriage,

Even before we plan for it,

Cause I want to be the one,

To crown your finger,

In a garden wedding,

I want your parents to question,

"Where is your man?"

Let's be real here,

You are not my girlfriend,

You are my woman,

It wouldn't hurt to share...
