My Man of Faith

Tattoo my tongue with candy kisses that pour into my heart like fine wine Caress me dear wide as the atmosphere With a red quilted touch in time Sway with me as we dream singing our favorite songs Stay with me despite challenging Teal times that go wrong When I cry let us decide that empathy helps me heal When I try to run and hide You pull me close help feel deal Oh my love how could you trust My Sagittarius red fire ways? It must be you I prayed for who would be my man of faith.

Your writing is exceptional, capturing the essence of emotions and evoking empathy. In a world filled with an abundance of narcissistic individuals, it becomes crucial for us to exercise caution. I thoroughly relished the beautiful poem you crafted, Karen.

Hi Karen, You are blessed to have found your man of faith. When you find the “one” they will love you despite your shortcomings and flaws. You have penned exceptional lines. PS, My younger brother, nephew, and grandmother(I'm sure I have many more family members as well) are Sagittarians. I enjoyed the read:-) Alexis

I take it you are a Sagittarius.. I really liked the opening of your poem with tattoo my tongue.. you write very well and Its important people have empathy, but with so many narcissists around we need to be careful.. Enjoyed your poem Karen..

I am great stronger wiser bolder. Years of therapy and writing about love helps defy the hate of rape. ;0)

Yes I am a Sag. And so far I have been lucky to avoid narcissists though I have had sexual trauma. Really it made me appreciate good men more! Thanks for reading Silent One.
