Too Good To Be (True Story)

Too Good To Be (True Story)…

written by: G. Lynn Brown

 

A man like you
is a thing of myths

outside of romance books
you shouldn’t exist

that’s where you find
those perfect men

those appealing characters
they call “Book Boyfriends”

dashing and daring
and so very caring

they remind me of you
of your rugged good looks

eyes like the ocean
that fill me with notions

and a smile to die for
that tells quite a story

speaks those words
you dare not say

while melting all
my heartache away

guys like you
aren’t supposed to exist

too good to be true
like all fleeting ideals

but you’re realer than real
and so hard to resist

you’ve stepped off the pages
apart from the chapters

and though we are far
from “Happy Ever After”

this isn’t “The End”
but only the start

of sharing my world

my love

and my heart

with my very own
flesh and bone

together til the very end
living, breathing

Book Boyfriend
