A’MYA T. LEWIS<br />
FUTURE<br />
I hope that my future husband thinks I’m as beautiful as the man who created me<br />
I hope he loves me like my father<br />
And cares for me like my mother<br />
I hope that he protects me like my brother<br />
And confines in me like his best friend<br />
I hope he sees past my flaws<br />
And is deaf to the negativity talked behind my back in this crucial world<br />
I hope that like a doctor, he treats the stab wounds in my back<br />
And heals me with his love<br />
I hope that he is calm, like the night<br />
And soothing like a hot bath to aching muscles<br />
I hope that he brings me warmth like the summer sun<br />
For I am cold, like long, lonesome, winter nights<br />
I want him to hold me, like I’m a child<br />
And fill me up, where I am empty<br />
I want to mean the world to him<br />
Because he will mean the world to me<br />
For I will have waited long enough to meet him.<br />
