The Kind of Person You Should Fall in Love With

Fall in love with a person who is quiet

Someone you’ve never spoken to

And from the corner of your eyes you can make him

Anyone you want him to be.

The steps are simple

I will walk you through them-

Find a face you like, a height of your choice

But never ever have a word with him

Though it’s okay if you think about his voice,

And when you chance upon a conversation centered around him, quietly walk away;

Imagine him listening to your favorite songs

Dancing alone as he cleans his room;

Close your eyes and see him lying down on the grass

Staring at the stars the way you do;

You can choose whether he’ll be gentle or rough-

Any way you’d like him to be;

You can feed him with all the right words,

All the beautiful acts of love,

All the strengths and weaknesses you can bear to adore;

Think of his family the kind you would like

And place him in a hometown you’ve always wanted to go.

Fall in love with someone you’ve never spoken to

And every man can be your perfect man;

But darling, don’t come crying to me

When you speak with him for the first time.
