I like the towels in place,
Arranged in parallel lines.
I like the boxes kept,
Matching edges in a line.
I want my man perfect,
With an athletic body and an intelligent mind.
But, I met you
And I found,
Not everything I wanted, was perfect,
Just a perfect heart to love me much.
So, even if you were not perfect in so many levels,
Even when you made my towels unparalleled,
Even when you disarranged my boxes and linens,
You were my perfect man,
With a perfect love.
