Iconic Image

You believe no one wants to be close to you. I know your iconic image and how much you appreciate being behind it. I know you love to appear as if "flying on the seat of your pants" is the best thing. I know your sense of adventure and compassionate heart.  I know you would make a great father one day. I know more than you know. Because, you see, you were an open book to me. I know what you are really searching for is a place to call home. Even though you never have "the balls" to admit it. I know your defense mechanisms and weaknesses.  You told me of the pointless dates you went on. I know your list for what your dream girl would have. I know I qualify for every detail. I know we aren't meant to be. I know... I know... I know. One day, I trust, I will wish nothing but the best for you. But, right now, today, I wish you knew that you will never find someone as beautiful as me. I grew sick of only being a listening ear and compassionate heart for you. Which, is because, I am so much more.
