Beautiful Mind.

"Any real man will appreciate and respect your beautiful mind because he realizes that you're an asset and you increase his worth. He will realize that with you, there is nothing he can't do. Understand that and never let go of it." -Tony A. Gaskins Jr.

I am a handful

I am a lot to handle

I am one of the quiet ones so . . . Watch out!

For as long as I can remember, I have been a thinker.

It doesn't bother me at all to sit back, look, listen, and observe.

My mind never stops thinking, I have to force myself to meditate to slow my thoughts down.

But even in meditation, it never comes to a stop.

My mind is beautiful.

It takes a pretty strong man to recognize the wealth of this beauty.

It takes an even stronger man to appreciate the thoughts, ideas, processes that escape at will.

I like the fact that I am a thinker.

I embrace the term "nerd" whole-heartedly.

I absorb the letters from cover to cover in any book placed in my lap.

But I need a man who understands the knowledge of the world is hidden between pages, not on the Internet.

I need him to understand reading expands our world and at the same time feeds our minds.

For him to realize, everything I do is an ultimate increase

Not just for me, but for us, not in any way a sacrifice

Know that my worth is just as valued as his

And not because any competition exist between us

He will know and flaunt my mind

He will be proud and support my accomplishments

He will encourage me to never stop feeding my mind

     Never stop believing in us

My man will never try to sit me down

     We will stand proud as one

         So the world can see

I can do all things with the support of he

And he can do all things with the support of me

Together our world will be limitless . . .

     But I will continue to sit back,

          Watch, and let you see

Just how Beautiful this Mind

          Can be . . .
