Proud Of My Qualities

This poem says it all about who I am and the qualities I have. I am hoping one day a real man will come along and scoop me up for the person I am and not the person he wants me to be.

I Am Someone...

Published by Family Friend Poems October 2016 with permission of the Author.

I am someone who gives all she has every time.
I am someone who talks twice as much as she listens.
I am someone who will tell you what you mean to her on a dime.
I am someone who is nice and caring, whose shadow glistens.

I am someone who can give you everything.
I am someone who knows what she wants.
I am someone who has dreams like Martin Luther King.
I am someone who is as warm as a basket of croissants.

I am someone who wears her heart on her sleeve.
I am someone who gets taken advantage of.
I am someone who has never had a kiss on New Year's Eve.
I am someone who is ready to fall in love.

I am someone who believes in honesty and trust.
I am someone who loves what she does.
I am someone who believes self-happiness and love are a must.
I am someone who tries to be fair and just.

I am someone who is ready for anything.
I am someone who is telling you who I am.
I am someone who has that crazy extra little zing.
I am someone who can be your grand slam.

This is who I am.

I had a professor in college tell me...there are two types of people in the world: the French-fry droppers and the French-fry picker-uppers. You and I, my dear, we are the picker-uppers. We have many of the same characteristics. I wasted 18 years with a man, only to be divorced by him. Now, at 43, I am still searching for that special someone to appreciate these qualities in me. I wish you luck on your journey, but just remember the over-used, but definitely worth it meme, "If you ever find things aren't going right---go left!" Don't wait-just go. -luck & love, K.
