Like a Man
I live by such simple logic actions
this only seems to you science fiction
left brain grows my people interactions
my male strength burns from a deep conviction
the fight for what is right my ambition
in my armour I take my lady’s plight
I will always be your saving brave knight
please do not judge me for being so hard
I feel I need to guard my love’s equal
our love's safety held in highest regard
as a man I live to fight all evil
I wear scars from a fight medieval
recording my loves struggle for my bride
my love and fight for you won’t be denied
when you neglect me I am also hurt
what I need is your heart as good as gold
be faithful to me never be a flirt
when we walk home at night in icy cold
my arm is the one that you choose to hold
I will hold your hand till the breaking dawn
when all your fears are now real and born
I hold your honour in highest esteem
this births my stress over our love future
I sacrifice for you as a life’s theme
all this while keeping my sense of humour
when our daughter’s heart has gone all lunar
her father will teach her to be love smart
this wisdom is what I hope to impart
when times in life bring on the very tough
this is when my vows and love commitment
ensure I fight for us to have enough
no regrets, this is a life fulfillment
my love for you will always be consistent
I chose to be your faithful loving man
I love you, like a man, that’s what I am
-for Linda and Jean-
