The Nice Guy©

This poem really needs no introduction. The words speak volumes on their own. I love the message of it. Don't let the title fool you - this is a valid message whether you are a man or woman.....



It's always wonderful in the beginning
that initial attraction
that spark
your heart tingles with anticipation
weren't you just praying about this?
talking to your girl about someone like this?
The One, The Nice Guy

You exchange information
you wait all day for that first call
you share heartfelt stories
reveal all the things you've longed to say
you tip all your cards
show him your love wish list
The One, The Nice Guy

He says all the right things
says he's the one for you
let's you know he'll dedicate his love to you
you start to blossom in his love
your skin starts to glow in his love
you talk about him with your friends
The One, The Nice Guy

The months start to fly by
there are endless phone calls, texts
you blush when you talk about him
there are romantic dinners
you believe in his love
yes you've made love
The One, The Nice Guy

One day, out of the blue
it all starts to unravel
you cry out to him, beg him
try to make sense of it all
but he's a different man
not the one you love
The One, The Nice Guy

The One, The Nice Guy
was it all a lie, or a bad dream?
or did you simply miss the signs?
we turn a blind eye to all the unpretty
or show our cards too soon
we give away the roadmap to our hearts
but ~ if you had simply waited
The One, The Nice Guy

If he's real, if he's the one for you
the love will be so simple
you won't have to try
so do yourself a favor
be true to who you are FIRST
be clear about who you are first
So that the one, the nice guy

When he appears
you are ready
take the time now to get ready!
Love you
decide if you would even date you
stop pointing the finger
and take a long, hard look in your mirror
So that the one, the nice guy

You are ready for him!
Be the one your desire FIRST
And let God do the rest.....
