He loved me unconditionally
Faithful was he,
Never have I had a love
That caressed my inner thoughts like he
He made me feel free to think
And rest on cloud nine
Finally in my life,
Someone made me feel free to fly
He made me feel free to be me
Even though I didn’t know who I was
And because of he
I now love me some me
April 29th
He said to me one evening while watching day
Break through her shell
That if I trust him,
He would make me forget
About all my past pain
That was associated with
Those who never really loved me for me
I often wondered did God create him
Just for me
May 1st
He said loving me
Was the best thing he had ever done
That this time
He didn’t even need an excuse
To love someone,
He chuckled and said loving me was fun
He said kissing me was like placing his lips
On the softest side of heaven
On May 12th
He said that by holding me
He knew what it felt like to hold a miracle
He thanked me,
On the 13th
He said loving me was critical
That it was more than physical
It was spiritual
The material in which my being
Is made of is soft to the touch
Of his thoughts
That’s what he said
On May 21st
He said that he would prefer that I carried him
Because I was the only one
That he trust not to drop his heart
A perfect love was he
He vowed
That every time he thought of me
He would embrace himself
Because just the mere thought of me
Made him fall in love all over again
And sometimes
He just needed to be hugged
And sometimes he just needed to be loved
And no one could love him
Better than me
Because he loved me through
The late nights that I cried
The late nights that I could have died
Thinking about how my dad stole my virginity
How he made me feel less than
The queen I was destine to be
I was broken
But this man,
While on bended knee,
Some how just by his touch, mended me
He was the potter and I was his clay
And everyday
when he holds me
He re molds me
He said his hands were meant to console me
That’s what he told me
And I believed him
June 3rd
After we made love,
He said that I was his queen,
And if this moment was a dream,
Not to wake him
But the reality was,
At that time,
On that night,
At that moment
He was made to be my king
He married me a second time
And I didn’t even need another ring
Because having his heart was symbolic enough
June 12th
He said that when he was not with me
He missed me so much that
He would close his eyes
And imagine that I was tattooed
On the inside of his eyelids
So even with his eyes closed
He could still see me in color
And I understood
Because when he wasn’t with me
I did the same thing
And I can’t explain
But when I opened my eyes
I didn’t feel the same
It was like spending more time with him
Wasn’t a strain
He made loving him easy
June 24th
He told me all he wanted to do in the this lifetime
Was to please me
The way his words embraced my spirit
Convinced me
that he needed me and everything that he said
Pleased me
His actions said that
He believed in me
And every one of his thoughts
Cleaves to me
And if it feels this good to be held by thoughts
Then I pray that he never stops thinking of me
July 5th
He said that he completes me
And after I closed her diary
I sat on the edge of our bed
Inhaled and cried
Never knew reading my girlfriends diary
Would make me feel
Like the man she said that I was

You, yet again, prove that you are a very talented poet. I love reading your works and look forward to reading more. As for this, particular piece, you do a great job of expressing the feelings of a woman and showing how many times a man cannot see what a woman sees in him. Believe me we know what we see and what we love about a man we love. You touched on a serious pain too many women have known--incest--and you show one thing that helps heal, real love.
