One Month

I want to be the man who’ll be more than your man
I want to be the one you make your best friend
Not to replace the ones you got
But a different one to start
A different kind of love for you
A man with a different point of view
Who really doesn’t care to lay you on your back
I really don’t care to get you in the sack
I don’t care what’s between your legs
Interested with what’s in your heart and your head
Your intelligence to hold me
Your love to move me
Doesn’t matter to me how sex with you would be
Would love you still if we left and you never slept with me.

I want to be there when you need a rock
I want to be the one to stop
You in your tracks when you approach me
Want to be the only man you see
I want to know what makes you tick
I want to take care of you baby when you’re sick
Not the kind of man to obsess bout the size of your chest
The kind of man to try to ease your fears
Not caring about the state of your hair
Instead bring your eyes near,
Let me stare and get lost
Take me to the source of your innocence
Let me fall into your essence
Swept away by your beauty
Amazing me with your purity. 

For you what I feel
Makes you my Achilles’ Heel
My only sweet weakness 
My eternal kryptonite
Thoughts of holding you tonight
My caramel princess
I must confess my heart’s distress
Leaving it a wonderful mess
A mass confusion of feelings
Making me a believer
Making me the receiver
Of a presence so divine.

Don’t make these tears drop
Try not to stop
What we both know is here
Learn to gaze and stare
Into my soul through my eyes
To  win that forever prize
That’s bigger than us both
Realize perpetual growth. 

Although soon we have to go away 
Honestly right now I wish to stay
In your arms
Listen to your heartbeat and let it calm
A few storms of my own
Can’t believe how much this has grown
In just a month…….
