The Wrapper.....Oh it can fool ya! Sometimes you think you thought, you knew exactly what you wanted, and you made up your mind you wouldn't settle for anything less then exactly what you think you thought you wanted.

Like buying a used car, you have a really good idea of what you would like to have, what seems to just fit, something your comfortable with, something that you know you can handle and take care of just fine. But once your at the car lot (online) you realize this could be a little confusing, now your starring at a Beamer sitting next to a Caddy, right next to a Benz, oooooh look at the Jag, love those head lights Their all shiny lookin to good, and to you they all seem brand new, Some of them are very popular, and everybody's looking at them, everybody seems to want them, and the bidding begins ( their lil clever lines). You smile to your self and think I've heard those lines a thousand times.

As your walking away, your thinking maybe I'll come back another day, but for now I'll just pocket my hopes and dreams of finding that perfect fit for me. You've already filled out the application (the profile) so the lot (the site) atleast knows who you are, even how to reach you. before you leave, you take one last look around, Their she is.... only she's not on the front line, she's in the far back nearly outta sight, but theirs no question in your mind this Beauty is indeed a rare find, a treasure beyond your wildest imagination.

The closer you get ( her background) the more it makes you wonder, how could so many pass this beauty by or did they? Did they just try to pick her cheap? did they just want her for parts, could they not see, the real beauty that lies under the dust from being parked for so long, did they just kick a few tires and walk away? did they try to start her up to quick? did they try to push start her? It's obvious they didn't even try to open her hood (her mind) to see if something was missing or disconnected.They looked at her odometer and think they thought they saw allot of milage (her age) and they simply walked on by and begain looking at other models. They didn't see what I saw..

So I walked around her for a minute and checked her out (her posts and her profile) pulled out my hankerchif and wipe off some of the dust (the tears from years gone by) (an email here and an email there) I think I knew the problem, I recognized it in an instant, this beauty was never adored, appreciated or admired, for all she was capable of delivering, the mere touch of the right button at the right time. Her hood opened up just a little, just enough for me to see and get a glimpse of what is in there. As I looked in (we talked) I could clearly see, this was anything but typical, there was no doubt in my mind she was different, I would take my oath on it.

The interior seems to be in mint condition, under appreciated but very comfortable (easy to talk with) there is a certain glow that radiates from her interior, that is very charming and captivating, the music (her voice) is a sound I could get use to hearing all the time, even her hello is like a real special occasion, I could listen to her music all night long. She comes fully loaded with all the options any man could ever dream of, their not after market, these options are from the factory (her ways).Their very real and very original.

It's hard for me to understand how anyone who once held the keys to this Beauty, in the palm of their hand, didn't see then, what I see now.. It blows my mind.
If I could I would, bring her home right now, clean her up (let her feel what I see) give her some tender loving care (let her see what I feel) I would take her "As Is" no guarantee's, I wouldn't change a thing. I would enjoy and appreciate every moment I spent in her interior (her heart) maybe one day I can find the latch that opens the hood (her mind) all the way, start her up and drive her off the lot, not for a test drive, but to be parked in a place we call home.

The Wrapper didn't look anything like, I thought it would look like, it was a look that was completely different to me, nothing like I ever thought it would be or look like, yet it seems like I could very easily get lost in this Wrapper.
