She
She never had a male role model
Or male figure in her in childhood
From a family of five females
Women is what she understood
She was a sweet girl
Quite gullible and naive
As she grew into womanhood
Male interactions were not well received
She encountered inappropriate behaviours
A health professional did her wrong
She was fearful of the opposite sex
Until you came along
You were kind and you were funny
So safe she felt with you
A good and decent honest man
Restoring her faith and fearful view
You have loved her a lifetime
She has loved you
You are the perfect role model
The one she never knew …..
