When your children reach higher heights,
achieving greatness,
I want to be there.
When your babies choose their mates.
And make babies of their own,
When you hold the wee things in your arms,
Tiny extensions of yourself,
I want to be there.
To see the smile on your face.
The wonder in your eyes.
The tears I know will gather at their corners.
By your side.
That’s what I want.
Supporting.
Exhorting.
Giving.
Loving.
A man like you who had rough beginnings
A man like you who has weathered storms.
A man like you who may need joy,
who may need laughter,
Lovemaking, food, and music
in his home…
I want to be the one who sustains you.
Who Satisfies,
Edifies,
Blesses and Supports,
Walks with,
Listens to,
Laughs and Cries with.
Partner.
Equal.
Lover.
Ray of sunshine.
Beam of light,
Flickering flame
In darkest night.
And Darling,
I want to be loved.
Thoroughly.
Completely.
Magically
Drenched in your affection.
To know your secret heart and you know mine.
I want what God intended.
Two souls united.
Misty shapes merging together
Creating a third thing.
A brand new thing.
An Us.
Place your hands against my own,
palm to palm.
Lace our fingers together,
Intertwine them.
Step closer, so that your thighs are touching mine.
Our bellies too.
Put your mouth upon my mouth and kiss…
make me yours.
Touch me in this way.
Open yourself
And trust.
I will do the same.
I want the love of creatures
The ones which mate for life.
Of the wild things that know,
The magic happens only once.
We’ve suffered in the past.
Let us pour good things
Into tomorrow.
There is no reason to deny this wonder, life.
I want what God intended.
