I want to find someone
who does not think I am either
more than they can handle ,
or less deserving of them and their expectations ...
and just simply happy with who I am
to be with me forever ...

I want somebody who can and will give
the time and effort that a worthwhile relationship
deserves to flourish and grow ...
Not just something to be put on the shelf ,
till how long I can not know ...
Whilst pursuing own life and to be taken out
for some dusting at their convenience...
Which hardly to true love ... gives it credence ...

I want somebody
who can look past the myriad of superficial differences
in opinion, character and nature...
and instead appreciate more the presence of common
ideals , values, and a compatible
outlook for the future ....
So that while the roads
may not be the same all the time
nor in every situation ,
they at least run parallel to each other
towards the same goal or vision ...
