Perfect Woman

Hello? Yes I am here.

I am solid and real.

I’ve got a brain, a heart and a sweetness.

Yes all of those things you’ve been pining over in a lady friend? I’ve got them all.

You say “no girl ever likes the same things I do”, and yet here I am.

Sure my curves may not fit into your perfect woman silhouette

but trust me boy I make up for it more than enough.

You say “no girl will understand my boys”

4 years of drumline and I’m making penis jokes along with the rest.

You say “no girl likes the movies I like”

I’m quoting Boondock Saints, Star Wars and Bill and Ted with the best of them.

You say “no girl understands why I can’t emote”

I’m writing a sassy tongue in cheek poem to tell you I love you.

So I may not be exactly what you’re looking for but boy I’m better than that!

I am real, I am solid!

Do you think I wanted some weak, snot nosed, smartass? Oh no!

I wanted a man who could fix my car

but we’ve both settled on bikes.

I wanted a man who would chase after me

But I’ve got to go to your house if I ever want to see you.

I wanted a man who could protect me

but I’m the one wielding the spider killing shoe.

So I may not be a perfect woman but you are far from a perfect man.

But I think we’re both perfect in our imperfections
