My Man...
Appreciates
That I ADORE him
And understands that in order to be his confidant, lover, partner and friend
I must be all that I can be
He knows that I will put my needs aside
To be there
For him
When he really needs me
And he will do the same

My man doesn't doubt
Or try to control me
Wants me to have friends
Doesn't try to hide me from the world
Doesn't live in fear that I'll find another
Wants me to be happy
Allows me to have
My own beliefs and opinions
Gives me space and girl time
Knows that you can
Agree
to disagree
Knows that when we go out
And I'm wearing my best dress
And looking like a star
That I'm twinkling
For him

He gets just how hard I try
Understands that I'm a woman
Resiliant but fragile
He gets that when I'm fussy
Usually just means
I need love and affection
He has his own life
And wants the same for me

My man
Makes me laugh
Makes me think
Listens
Talks
Drys my tears
Calms my fears
Wisely picks his battles
Is mature enough to work through them
Lives one day at a time
But gets the big picture

My man is a free spirit
Who handles his responsibilities
He's honest and loyal
Understands the difference
Between sex and intimacy
Doesn't live in the past
And isn't afraid to dream

My man is fluid like water
Hot like fire
Strong like a mountain
Deep like an ocean
Tall like a tree
Wise like an old man
Sweet like a child
He plays, works, loves
And is grateful for all good things in his life
He knows the difference
Between what he wants
And what he needs
He'd rather make love
Than fight
And understands that
Happiness is give and take
Yin and yang

No one holds me like him
No one knows me like him
No one touches me like him
He makes me blush like a schoolgirl
Daydreams and his name written on my books
His voice warms my heart
His face makes me smile
He is the first thought when I wake
And my last thought when I close my eyes
To sleep
I am his
And he is
My man
