Upgrading

Cuddling her when she's sick, and bringing her hot soup
Massaging her sore feet when she danced in high heels
Doing the whatever to spin around the wheels
And make her realize that life brought her this scoop

Her beauty is within but with an angel's face
Her smile lights up a room, causing global warming
Having the blast of life to sexual charming
Yet, wanting to complete and find her rightful place

The arms were wide open, as she criss-crossed the maze
Crossing paths already, and hoping for again
Willing to wait some time, as complete gentleman

And now it's the standstill, looking out in a glaze
Wanting to be with her, yet her decision made
With final swift verdict, she's wanting an upgrade
