I never felt it was fair to perceive her as just a woman
Just a being that existed beside me
She was natural, with a big afro that weather couldn’t blow
The way she walked, a silky sashay through the room commanding attention
She was like smooth jazz played at an expensive dinner
I longed to meet her
But yet
I was too caught up in mental fantasies
Scared to finally face reality and ask her for a simple dance
She was perfect in every way
I pictured her moving in tune with me moving to our favorite tune
Flowing like natural waterfalls as we fall into an intimate embrace
What a woman I would say
What a lady on this day
I finally got the nerve to approach her
My dreams were being realized before mine own eyes
When fantasy would finally meet reality
Just as I went in to present my case
She turns to me
Dreamy eyes, dreamy eyes
Sweet lips accented in mahogany lip stick
My lady, I would like to partake in a sweet embrace
I would like to move in a sensuous mood
We danced for an eternity it seemed
But alas, our song ended
And as I moved in for a kiss
She disappeared into a fine, sweet mist
Perfection is only perceived in the mind
But with time we shall develop as one and your flaws become perfection to me
