My Kind of Man
My kind of man
Always knows his way
His sense of direction
Is sublime
All the time
He only speaks
Now and then
And only when
He has something
Meaningful to say
He stays calm no matter what
And always keeps his cool
He’s no fool
He never shouts
Or spouts nonsense
Always in control
He doesn’t need to ask the way
Never says I told you so
There’s not a lot
He doesn’t know
Confident
Self assured
Relaxed
Knowledgeable
And above all
Invisible
Yes
Yes
He’s the voice on my GPS
Green light
Red light
I’m going to make it home tonight.
