I don’t know how to flirt, so I’m just going to stare at you until you marry me. I’m just going to wait for you to fall in love with me. I’m going to have to learn to be patient to the best of my abilities because that’s what most passive people need to do. They need patience. I’m going to be patient and wait for you. I’m going to wait for you; the girl whose best asset doesn’t lie with her body’s physique, her luscious golden hair, or her impeccable fashion sense. I’m going to wait for the girl whose greatest asset lies in who she is as a person; the total package that she brings to the table.

I’m going to wait for you; the girl whose life isn’t measured by her possessions or the amount of money that she has in her bank account. You are the girl whose life isn’t defined by your job or your career. You aren’t limited to your amazing legs or your deep beautiful eyes. You aren’t merely made up by your full lips and soft face. You aren’t defined by the idealized aspects of your personality. You are mostly defined by your realness and authenticity. You are mostly defined by your sincerity.

I’m going to wait for you; the girl whose passion just emanates from your very being. You are a girl who has a fire in your heart. You have a flame in your eyes that just burns brighter and brighter with each passing day; you know how to keep your passion alive. You are the girl whose words are like poetry and whose mannerisms are like music. You are the girl who espouses grace in spite of the many damages that you have accrued in your lifetime. You are the kind of girl who espouses strength despite the many stretches of your life where you have been bent and broken. You are the girl who keeps on walking forward no matter what challenges lay ahead of you.

I’m going to wait for you; the girl who genuinely believes in the goodness and love in the hearts of all men. You are the girl who sees the vast beauty of the world. You are a girl who maintains your faith in humanity even when there are so many reasons for you not to do so. You are a girl who is able to see the light in even the darkest creases of life. You see the ups in the midst of all the downs. You are the girl who walks like summer and talks like rain. You are the girl who carries yourself with the confidence and pride of a lion but also with the humility and grace of a gazelle.

I’m going to wait for you; the girl who really understands her own worth. You are someone who knows that you are deserving of great things because you are constantly putting out great things into the world. You are someone who knows just how significant your achievements in the past have been, but you also know that there are plenty of things that you have yet to accomplish in the future. You are a girl who carries the weight of sadness in your eyes but also the youthful hope of a bright tomorrow in your heart. You are a girl whose story is a classic novel that has yet to reach its climax.

I’m going to wait for you; the girl who is far from being perfect but still manages to make things work despite these imperfections. You aren’t flawless but you never let these flaws hold you back. You aren’t without your share of demons, but you never let these demons serve as an excuse. You aren’t the luckiest person in the world, but with your work ethic, you don’t really need all that much luck to begin with. You are a girl who just demands everyone’s attention with your sheer presence. You are a girl who inspires with your mere existence.

I’m going to wait for you; the girl whose face will shine brighter than the collective rays of the sun. You are a girl who would never settle for anything that is beneath you. You would never allow yourself to get pinned down by things or people that don’t add value to your life. You are a girl who would willingly give your heart to others but would also stand up for yourself whenever necessary.

And it’s a shame that I’m just not brave enough to actually go up to you and start things. But I can wait. I’m picking my spots. I do this because I know that the best things in life don’t necessarily come right away. They require great patience.
