They told me

They told me to wait for the person who pursues me,
And I did, I waited long and hard, and he did pursue me just as long, and just as hard.
They told me to wait for the moment that seemed magical,
And I cannot tell you in words just how magical it was.
They told me to wait for the man who brings out the best in me,
And when I met him, I did not know I could be this great.
They told me to wait for the man who would be my best friend,
And although I did not want to admit it, he was, and he was amazing.
They told me to wait for the man who would drop everything for me,
And somehow he found ways to fit me into the busiest of weekends and still spend every waking second with me.
They told me to wait for a man that wanted to show me off to the world,
And I did wait, and he did show me off to the world, and it made me feel like I was the only woman alive.
They told me to wait for a man that would appreciate when I got dressed up.
And every time, with out fail that I got dressed up, he always managed to tell me how beautiful I looked.
Then they told me to wait for the man who would put me in the center of their universe.
And you did…for a little while, and then reality hit, and everything they told me slipped away.
