When I was Looking for You
By Julie Lacksonen
I didn't know you, but I was looking for you
The idea of you was clear in my mind
*
You would be kind to every deserving person
Including me
You would be generous to those in need
Including me
*
You would share your hopes and dreams
As would I
You would be happy sharing tender moments and laughs
As would I
*
If we had a disagreement, you would talk through it
Like an adult
If something was bothering you, you would confide in me
Like an adult
*
You would be generous with your time
As would I
You would be willing to share your body
As would I
*
When I was looking for you, I didn't know your face
I didn't care what you would look like
As long as you looked lovingly on me
I didn't know exactly who I was looking for
But I'm glad that I found you
