It lies in you...Another bit of poetry

The perfection of a man lies within you.

The mesmerizing scent of your natural essence astounds me.

The complexion of your chocolate skin creates the perfect blend of serenity and sensuality.

Your walk is undeniable.

You make the love I hold just for you drain like a river into the stream of my undergarments.

As I watch your faultless expressions I begin to cringe at the gripping sight of your eyes.

The whites of your eyes so pure looking at you makes me feel untouched.

The structure of your face so perfectly aligned it makes me shiver.

I sweat at the touch of you hand.

Not worthy of you sharing your serenity with me.

Your stature is so powerful it intimidates me.

I bow at your royalty.

The king of men you prove yourself in any battle.

Your curly coarse hair embraces my fingers as I massage your tresses.

Being around you gives me a feeling of peace as I know you will take care of me.

I lay in your arms watching you sleep.

The perfection of your breathing sends my walls into attack as I feel the cool breeze on my chest.

Your precious treasures are like no other kind.

Full of length and width I embrace your riches with all my might…

A queen next to her king I understand your past.

The struggle you overcame to become the great one that you are.

I salute you and respect you.

The perfection of a human being lies deep inside of you….

Stand proud and stand tall…

You are a black man….
