My thoughts
If you are single,
you carry this on you,
always.
It occupies our mind,
our thoughts,
but it's not always
in check.
It's those desires we seek,
those traits we would
like to see in another.
From personality,
to good work ethic,
finding attractiveness
where ever it's present.
We must be careful
what we measure with.
Can the person meet our expectations,
without compromising what we seek?
There are necesseties and wants,
but is what we want really what we need?
Where do we bend the rules
to get what we want?
To turn a blind eye
to the red flags,
eventhough it is
what we desire?
Is the measurement so high,
that expectations are never met?
Or so low that everyone is a possibility?
It takes balance,
and patience,
waiting and seeking
what is pleasing and acceptable.
The ones we seek must
measure up to our lists.
