Heart Shaped Space

There was a picture in my head, a fantasy I thought of this big strong man

Sweet but tough, someone who would understand

Who would open his arms and take me in

Biggest hug ever, not like other men

I said to God, please sometimes enough is enough

I need a respite from all that has been so rough

You have sent me feathers and friends and angels and more

Could I ask one more thing...someone I adore?

Someone who gets me and who is ready for this

A man who is kind and good who can share my deep down bliss

And then he was there. Picked almost as a mistake, a swipe to the right

We talked of life and pain and I saw his great might

I listened and everyone said I should be all okay alone

But I knew deep down I knew I wanted to have my mind completely blown

He stands so tall,combat boots as a base

He holds out his arms and then touches my face

A little prayer from me, thank you God

He likes my silly jokes and does not mind that I am flawed

My heart shaped space has been waiting to be filled 

And with this man that believes in heaven, I am more than thrilled

Early days I know but hopes so high

I look forward to the future with a very content sigh

A calmness, a peace settling all over me

Of what love and fun lie ahead I cannot wait to see
