finally a man

i think i am
finally a man
i just realized that you let me
touch the real you
that soft gentle inner woman
i saw you as this hot almost wild woman
a lot of rough edges
practical hard working
showing a raw side untamed
so i tried to be this guy
who was firm but silly
a big little boy
trying to be slightly forceful
how wrong was i
i just touched you
without a bit of strength
just trying to respect your softness
i was ever so gentle
more so than i ever have been
i feel so strong but not vulnerable
you were open to me
and i caressed you
with a sensitive touch that i hadn't felt before
i long to continue this journey with you
i feel that i have a woman by my side
and i finally feel like a man
so i will be the soft gentle man
who loves you deeply
