Black Man

Thank you for loving me patiently, caringly, kindly

Please do not cease caressing me with your kind words

Baby… I like… how you call me to you

With your eyes, body, spirit, and soul.

I respond to you with all of me

Nothing will I withhold

Hold me close to you

Your heart beat sings to me

Your embrace fits me perfectly

Let me stay a little while in tune with you and me

The world stops

Frozen

While your love touches me intimately

I look up as your beauty your eyes wash over me

Baptized

Truth is I loved you the first time I saw you walk by

Like water.. tall dark African Prince… refreshing

Delicate

Like a dream and you touched me with your words

Embraced me with your look
