My man

An assignment in Poetry class. A title that earns the meaning later in the poem.

My man

You look so serene when you are asleep beside me.
I’m not some woman,
who would wake you from the deepest sleep
just to hear you say you love her.
I will be selfless and protect your dreams.
I have never met anyone like you, who pursued me
and conquered me. I have never felt this way before and
it seems more like myself now, being submitted to you.
No wonder why I’ve never been so delighted,
I guess I was looking in the wrong places.
Here you are, you strike me with pleasure.
I love the way you grab me from the behind.
I love hearing your moan in my hair while you are taking me.
I love feeling your breath on my neck, sounds like you
are really enjoying me.
You taught me how exciting it would be
to be in your kind of world. Everything is an adventure,
no matter where I go, as long as you are with me.
Rainbows cherish our path, and we will see no end of us.
I want “this” to keep happening,
I don’t want it to be just another affair
I want us to be together ‘til death do us apart
Are you ready for that kind of commitment?
I left my kids to be with you, I hated my wife but
I’d love to be yours.
Let’s move to California, the Golden State has
no ban on same-sex marriage any longer.
It is the time for us,
one- man to one-man,
just you and me.

Wonderful piece of work that you have written. I love how at the beginning I thought it was about a man and a woman and at the end it is talking about one-man and one-man. I enjoyed reading the poem, you did a pretty good job!

Welcome to WC by the way, hope you enjoy your stay ;)!
