Ali Hammoud Poet Verse

When a Man Loves a Woman

When a man loves a woman.

I went to the perfumer to make me a scent,
to please the woman I love, she is Godsend!

He said I will make you a scent no woman has ever wore,
and in replace you must give me your soul.
 
I said my soul I don't own, to God it belongs,
But instead I will give you my home.
 
Because when a man loves a woman. 
This is all he needs, first to build her a home in his heart, 
then whatever she may please!
