Getting to know you is going to be fun,

could it be that God has sent me the one?

The one who will love and cherish me always,

The face I will awaken to for many blessed days.

A face that is serious but handsome as well,

I wonder about the tales that your thoughts could tell.

Thoughts that I hope are often of me,

and our future possibilities.

We click so well, we’re a natural fit,

like a pitcher’s ball to a catcher’s mitt.

Hopefully, our love will never strike out,

there is so much we have to talk about.

Our sense of humor fits well together too,

I can’t wait to share more laughter with you.

Am I afraid? Yes, I admit,

even though you feel like a potential fit.

Your manliness is overwhelming; it’s been a long time,

you’re just doing you, and that’s not a crime.

I look forward to getting to know you more,

my passion and emotions are starting to pour.

So, grab a bucket, this could be a mess,

am I feeling you? Most definitely, yes!
