I Need To Man Up and Love Myself
I Need to MAN Up And Love Myself
I'm just like a book on a bookshelf,
Haven't been read in a while
It's like I'm living in a state of defilement
It's dusty, who's been treated unjustly
So I turn and see a pristine book on the shelf
And that book is all about Love
And I say "Love open up"
I look in for a closeup
I felt the urge to put my feelings in writing
I really feel our connection is tightening
My dear beloved
I really feel my life did just start
I would rather have you than a million bucks
You are like a white swan amidst ordinary ducks
I think we are the perfect match
For you, I am willing to stretch
You mean so much to me
With you, I really feel free
Eternal bliss is where I'm bound
Near you, everything is sound
This Self-Love is for you, I hope you will like it
Because loving you, I will never quit
This poem has come to an end
Remember that, without you, my heart feels bent
