You are ever so smooth in how you move
In commanding authority you walk—or should I say “groove”
Everything you do has a purpose, a reason, a goal
I can see it in your eyes—your deep, enchanting eyes
For they witness of your soul
Which bears the scars and bruises and fears of a heart,
broken and disappointed several times over
And because you rarely, if ever, allow this part of you to be seen
Your face, often, is expressionless in an all-too-successful attempt to cover
Your feelings, your emotions, your true thoughts
About your past, your future and today
Oh, and dare I say…love…it’s okay
To be in love with life, with Love, with yourself, and…me
Please don’t forget about me
Your scent, your walk, your way of talking
Your hug, your smile, your style of dressing
Your charm, your laugh, your vibe, your groove, your soul, your love…
That’s what draws me to you
Nothing particular, nothing specific
But everything spectacular, everything unique, everything special, everything—
“You”
You are a man, living in your own world
Often misunderstood by those of us who don’t come from there
Your life tells a story
Of Joy and sorrow…Strength and weakness…
Triumph and defeat
You are an Overcomer
Driven by Determination, destined for Greatness,
created for Dominion
You are a Prince
A knight in imperfect armor
You are Father, Brother, Husband, Friend…and Love.
You are…you
And I thank you.
