He's Not Here Yet

My husband, 
He's attentive.
He mirrors the care I give, gracefully.

Believing in my ideas,
Guiding with no grip,
Debriefing as we cool.

My husband,
He's talented,
He knows failure and the win. 

Humble in that fact,
Driven by integrity,
Kind hands, the type the small run towards.

My Husband,
He's warm inside,
Undying in his inner flame.

He turns his own cogs,
His mind multidimensional,
His heart radiating in ripples.

My Husband,
His eyes sing so loudly,
Empathy the main chorus that never ends.

Recognising others naturally,
Holding space without thought,
A strong spine protecting his clan. 

My Husband,
He isn't here yet,
But I've been growing for my love.

Hear my call, dear partner...
Immerse yourself in me,
By your side I will stand in glory.
