Worthy of a Love

I know I've yet to feel the touch of such sweet, soft skin
Or the wet, moist lips of such a gentle, damp kiss
It's not because I hit speed bumps or a few dead-ends
Or stood by and allowed myself to just simply miss
I tell myself that I'm okay with just being lonely
It may just prevent me from ever getting hurt
But I know I'm missing out on my one and only
To fully get to treasure the value of someone's worth
To look into those compassionate eyes and get totally lost
To witness their heart in all its glory and love
To ponder for hours trying to figure their every thought
And to continue to push forward to always give them enough
To pull their hair back and to wipe their every tear
 To hold their hand and caress each and every curve
To comfort them when they've been overtaken with fear
And to work my tail off to give them what they deserve
I know there will be obstacles along each and every path
Nothing is every easy but we do it with faith and will
With strength and determination we get ourselves on track
We persevere and move forward as we descend the hill
I don't know what challenges will lay ahead of me
The road is definitely rocky and it is bound to get tough
But I'll continue to be who God intended me to be

Someone that someday will be worthy of a love!
