do you remember asking me for my number
making your mind wonder, like, who is this pretty girl
making you wait after class,
making you walk fast,
who knew this relationship would last 25 long years
My man!

I remember, you walking to see me in the snow,
just so you could get to know me.
I watched as you slip and fell down on the ground,
you looked around to make sure that no one saw you,
time flew! just as birds do, and your still,
My man!

I remember, you asked to marry me that day,
I said, “No way! Let’s wait a while.”
it wasn’t until we had our first child,
I knew that I was the girl for you.
right here is where we stand,
I'm your woman forever, and baby your still,
My man!

I never thought that bitterness would ever get the best of me,
And my dreams of happiness always felt like distant memories.
Always finding excuses, to cover up my misuses.
So regretfully, I successfully played the cards that had been dealt to me.
Always longing for longevity, always critiquing my capabilities.
Always ignoring my inner feelings, helped create more disabilities.
Always thinking about possibilities, never owning my insecurities.
Allowing bitterness to just take from me, everything I knew I could be?
Expectations of my relations, always faking and mistaken,
Never claiming, always blaming, things on everyone around me.
Now I’m learning, and I’m living, because I realized that I’m human,
And mistakes are only choices, when you listen to certain voices.
Then you’ll realize, you can’t compromise, getting older, makes you wiser.
And you’ll pass the test, when you try your best, always striving to go higher!

I see you watching me,

Like I watch TV.

I know you like me,

Too bad I have on a ring.

I walk by, and you always stare.

Even on my lunch break, I see you there.

Don’t waste your time,

Because it’s clear to see,

That somebody in this office,

Is crushing on me!
