The Perfect Man

I've searched
For my knight in shining armor
I've looked for the prince charming
That my childhood fairy tales
Spoke of.
Yet I never seemed to find
The man that made me feel
The way that I imagined
My love would make me.
I saw my friends fall in love
With guys that did not reach perfection
But they seemed blind to this fact
And I wondered if I was wrong.
I met ones who seemed to fit the mold
Of the one I was searching for
Only to find that they were not meant for me
Then I met you
With your shy smile and not always social ways
And I knew from the first moment
I caught your eye
That you were the man for me.
It is your tiny flaws
Mixed with your loving ways
That make you the the perfect man
To take the place of the golden prince
Who was only in my dreams.
