Why I Love Him

He makes me feel beautiful
without even licking my lips
or batting my eyes
or swaying my hips
or lifting my thighs
He makes me feel beautiful from the inside
And I feel that he feels
every word that I say 
And that he allows me to express 
myself in every creative way 
that I know how
I tell him my darkest secrets 
Not one has he told
And for the first time I know
that
I feel that
Someone looked at me and didn't see sex 
but saw a soul
He sees my soul
He knows me wellI tell him my darkest secrets
Yet he never tells
I tell him my darkest pains
Those things that left me teary eyed and cold
Those things that scarred the heart and hardened the soul
And he took his heart and shielded my soul
From those things that left me teary eyed and cold
He's just that type of man
Sensitive but strong
And he helps me to understand
That this is the way I should be loved
And I love him
Because
He makes me feel beautiful
with out even licking my lips
or batting my eyes
or swaying my hips
or lifting my thighs
He makes me feel beautiful from the inside
