Mr Right

Mr Right

A Poem by Glee

He talks to me in my sleep
He comes to me while I'm alone
He whispers to me in my ear
For his voice is calm and soothing
His stroke strong and gentle
His words kind and comforting

But even then I can not be deceived
For I know he does not exist

Even then I'm not confused
Because I know he's too good to be true

But then we met
And for a moment's hint
I thought I could see him through your eyes

Perhaps I was just fooling myself
You seemed like everything I could ever want

Perhaps I was too hopeful
Too overanxious
Too optimistic

But I thought I could see a hint in your eyes that was him

How could I trust my own judgment?
The words that were said that I could never forget
The moments that were passing that I could never regret

Could you be my Mr Right?

He is all I need
For he could bear my burdens
And I could bear his
For we could share the good times
And laugh in the bad times

Could you be my Mr Right?

But then I look deeper

Your compassionate eyes turn ice cold
Your gentle touch becomes a rough shove
Your warm smile fades into an arrogant smirk

Could you be my Mr Right?

How could you be when I don't see him through your eyes anymore?

Mistakes made that can't be undone
Words that were spoken that can not be taken back

But Mr Right didn't give it a moment's thought
Mr Right didn't even take the moment to notice
I wasn't even worth his while

How could I settle for anything less

The occasional glances
The polite smiles in the hallway
I wasn't even worth his while

How could I settle for anything less

All I wanted was my Mr Right

To make my days bright
And my nights white

Now that I have him in my sight
I can not think of anything but my flight

How can I be rid of this fright?
Was it just his height?

That made me light and fly like a kite
All I wanted was never to fight

All I wanted was my Mr Right

Can't wait any longer

the flow is choppy. You do have a clear voice, it is very strong but the words you have do not seem to reflect all that is felt, like you settled for word choice. i think you could make it muh better. the repeating lines are nice, they bring back the questioning and conviction.
