Exposed

I See

I See

I see a girl who

Admired you from afar

But what did you see

When you chose to ridicule me?

I see a girl who

Took a chance

Only to have you follow

My best friend around the dance.

I see a young woman

Who would wait to be asked,

On a date, to a dance and

Was always passed.

I see a young woman

Whose first boyfriend she never kissed

3 Months later, he left her

wondering what was remiss.

Finally, someone took a chance

I see a young woman

Who is in love with romance

Be beaten down, abused,

Left used and confused.

Still there was more to come

For this young woman

was meant for someone

He had seen her from time to time

At the bank waiting in line

He saw a woman

Worthy of note

On the back of a coin proof

His number he wrote

It took me a week

To get the nerve to call

Fearful of another fall

But the night he showed up at my door

I wasn't afraid anymore

For I could clearly see

He was the man meant for me.

The rest were all in line

Schooling me over time

Teaching me the lessons

I needed to learn

So his love I could earn. 

Still I wonder what you see

every time you look at me

You'd say 

A woman I see 

who means everything to me

A woman I think so highly of

A woman whose sweet and kind

and beautiful...

I see... My True Love.
