Guys Like Me

By: Jorge Campos

We’re the guys who
love you truly and deeply.
We’re the guys who
can give you whatever your heart desires.
We’re the guys who
can pleasure you immensely,
if only you look beyond our appearance.
We’re the guys who
tell you how beautiful you are every other second.
We’re the guys who
know exactly what to say in every situation.
We’re the guys who
write those poems you love, and who you wish you knew.

We’re the guys you
don’t notice or who you shun whenever you pass us by.
We’re the guys who
you roll your eyes whenever we have the courage to say, "hi."
We’re the guys whose
hearts break when you don’t want to dance.
We’re the guys whose
personality you love and wish would be in Brad Pitt’s body.
We’re the guys who
know exactly where every spot is and know how to touch it.
We’re the guys who
ACTUALLY think about you all the time and ACTUALLY miss you.

We’re the guys who
make the money even though you say you don’t care.
We’re the guys who
spend half our money on you only because you’re you.
We’re the guys who
want you to be happy and never be sad.
We’re the guys who
want to massage you so YOU feel good, not so WE feel good.
We’re the guys who
can’t wait for your phone call or can’t wait to call you.

We’re the guys you’re
looking for when your boyfriend hits you or yells at you.
We’re the guys you’re
looking for when you need someone to talk to.
We’re the guys you’re
looking for when you need someone to cry on.
We’re the guys who
are waiting by our lonesome for you to come to your senses.
We’re the guys who
make you laugh at all the perfect moments.
We’re the guys who
don’t care what you wear... either way you’re beautiful.
We’re the guys you
think are pointless because of the way we look.

But no matter how bad you treat us and hurt us...
We still KNOW...
Woman is the most precious thing in the universe.
