“When you find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot,
who calls you back when you hang up on him,
who will stand in front of you when others cast stones,
or will stay awake just to watch you sleep,
who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats,
who will hold your hand when you're sick,
who thinks you're pretty without makeup,
the one who turns to his friends and says, ‘that’s her’,
the one that would bear your rejection
because losing you means losing his will to live,
because losing you means losing his will to live,
who kisses you when you screw up,
watches the stars and names one for you and
will hold and rock that baby for hours so you can sleep…
you marry him all over again.”
