He Is Me

There's so much about this man
I've learned and prayed just to understand
Driven I am and so is he
Fierce and determined for he is me

Dominate and confident for the world to see
He has the same confidence, for he is me
I love his style and the way he dress
I long for my breast to rest on his chest
His smell, his touch, his smile, his demeanor
Everything about him is a reflection of me
He is me when I look in the mirror, he is me when I dream
I wrote about a vision of him, the vision that's yet to be seen

Two people together, too much the same
Two people as one, two different names
He has raised the standards and he didn't even know
To get with me, it's extremely high
Where some don't even bother to try

I sit and realize life is what you make it
And all is fair in love and basketball
I'm at a peaceful place, I have controlled a lustful desire to sin
Or should I say the desire I had, the desire to be loved by him
To having an erratic heart beating when memories kick in
To appear to have fear of loving that one, the one who is so dear
What is he afraid of? This shouldn't be
He shouldn't be afraid, for he is me

A roller coaster ride, my feelings I can't hide
The love I have overflowing inside
To run from someone I long to run to
Not wanting to be shut out or disappointed by you

Love is something we didn't expect, yet you can see it in our faces
The same desire we both feel, yet to solve we're in different places
So I guess only time will tell, the time that only God can redeem
The time I spent envisioning a dream

Nothing complicated or difficult for we didn't design a plan
Our love doesn't require research for us to understand
He hears my thoughts when I think of him, my words echo in his mind
And thoughts of him often brings me a bright ray of sunshine

It's JUST US, as you can see
It's JUST US, for he is me
