&quot;This one&#039;s for the girls who have ever had a broken heart, who have wished upon a shooting star, you&#039;re beautiful the way you are...&quot;<br /> -Martina McBride

Wait for the one who treats you right;
who holds your hand and keeps you tight;
Wait for the one with a great big smile,
the one who plans on staying a while.
Wait for the one to who dares to listen;
the one you often find yourself missing;
Wait for the one to whom you can talk,
the one who is the key to your lock...

The author's comments:
I wrote this poem for my boyfriend, Conor, while we were dating all the way back in mid-July 2010. We hadn't seen one another for about a month because of our vacations overlapping. This poem is all about waiting for that one right guy, and how distance can bring two people closer.
