A poem written for the love of my life, my husband, Brian.

 

Do you know what I see?
A strong, handsome, regal king, wise and free.
Sometimes I stare at you, you are the most precious of men.
A rare blend of honesty, sincerity, I couldn't ask for a better friend.
 
Do you see how I've changed? It was for me and just as much for you.
You make me want to be better than I am, in everything I do.
You laugh and it makes me smile. So wonderful are you and unique.
I love when you hold me, we fit well together, it's such a treat.
 
Maybe when you look at me, you really can't see,
Nothing is impossible, not with you and me.
I've been hurt before, beaten, emotionally and physically too.
Thought I was I done with men till I met you.
I'm not too young and you're not too old,
I'm good for you, well maybe I'm just too bold.
You are a rare and precious soul.
A wonderful man with a heart of gold.
Take my hand, feel my heart's steady beat.
You my love, I would never mistreat.
 
I'm worth more that I thought I could be,
That's why the men in my past abused me.
They saw my potential and were afraid I'd go,
If I only knew then what they did know.
So they made me believe I was nothing so I'd stay.
Take care of them and do things their way.
All the while I struggled with not being good enough,
I was great the whole time, but never realizing it was rough.
When I could stand it no longer, I broke free,
It cost me my pride, but not my dignity.
 
Everything I was supposed to have I'm gonna get,
My life is good now, I'm finally set.
Your wish is my command my darling man,
Your heart couldn't be safer in my hand.
With you I can be myself, only better.
With me you can be you, it's always good, us together.
I love your touch, your warm embrace and soft caress,
The way you look at me with delight, even without makeup and my hair a complete mess.
 
I'm amazed at how good you are for me and to me,
I want to give you my all, anything to make you happy.
I want to make your dreams come true , what do you wish for?
What can I do, what can I give you that will make your heart soar?
You have my love, my trust and so much more.
You can have it all with me, it's not like before.
I want to belong only to you,
Forsaking all others, staying true .
 
 
I love waking up with you by my side,
Kissing your forehead and watching the sunrise.
I cover you with a blanket when you've fallen asleep.
Massage you from the crown of your glorious head to your beautiful feet.
I used to think you were too good for me and too good to be true ,
But now I know the difference and thank God I do!
 
 
 
 
 
We are perfect for each other, me and you,
Without you in my life, well, I wouldn't know what to do.
I have opened my heart after so much pain,
smashing into me like a runaway train.
Thank you for giving love a second chance,
so you could find the rare ebony jewel that you wanted to romance.
 
Together we can do anything, unstoppable, me and you,
thanks for opening your heart to me because I truly love you, I do.
