Just a Man

 

Who would love me as I am?

I splendor

I hunger

I wonder

 

Who would take me as I am?

For I was just a man

A simple man

An honest man

A believer

A hard worker

 

For I was no superstar

I was no superhero

I was no superhuman

I was just a man

 

I was no stunning mistress

I was no gorgeous duchess

I was no high powered exec

I was no wealthy tycoon

For even if I had money I would never believe in it

For even if I had millions I would never live by them

I was just a man

 

So I wondered

Who would take me as I am

Who would love me as I am

Who would love me for me

Who would come with me on this wondrous journey

This long voyage called life

Who else but him

 

He who calls me in the morning

He who wants to be with me

He who is not afraid to say he loves me

He who says I’m beautiful

Inside and out

For true beauty lies on the inside

 

How could I be worthy of his love

For I was just a man

A simple man

An honest man

A believer

A hard worker

 

For I was no superstar

I was no superhero

I was no superhuman

I was just a man

 

How could I be worthy of his love

 

He loves me

I know he loves me

He’ll never leave me

He loves me

 

He wants me

I know he wants me

He’ll never leave me

He wants me

 

He trusts me

I know he trusts me

I could never hurt him

He trusts me

It sounds like a song... Have you already put your poems in music?

Great work, m8. I love the feel through the whole thing. Like Frank said, it's wonderfully charged.

Just had a look at your profile. You said ask if you want to know more. Are you gay? It wasn't clear. Not that it matters: being a 'homosexual' myself.
I like this poem, it is complete. It reminds me of my friend Kevin, at this stage of his life he is in the longest rlationship he's ever been in and very happy, and us, his friends dont quite approve of his boyfriend but we have agreed there has to be something really special bout him because Kevin is just the happiest...this reflects my thoughts on that as it sums up how he probably feels.
Its really well written, in depth and simple and you should be very proud.
