Find me...

Find me a grown up please, one who knows how to talk.  One who knows that it's more important to know why than who, what, when, and where.

Find me a grown up, one who can act like a kid.  Someone who sits in anticipation of the stories you tell instead of staring off into oblivion.  Someone who isn't afraid of being close both physically and emotionally, because it's far more fun than bouncing off boundaries that are too far out from your heart.  

Find me a gown up, one who's responsible and diverse.  Someone who can remember to add the salt to boiling water but then throws in come cayenne for spice.  Not one who is impressed with worldly possessions and yet devoid of human kindness.  

Find me a grown up please, one who has depth to their soul and finds that it's better to swim around in it than to jump around deck with preconceived notions.  One who CAN be present in the moment with you and looks to find the facets yet unearthed.  No more people that jump around thinking that they are living, when they are just scratching the surface.  

Find me a gown up, one with some heat.  One that can drive me wild and upside down, yet will hold me when I'm feeling sideways.  Find me a grown up...just one who I can love.
