My Man.

A rhyme. No, I don't have a boyfriend. But it was fun to come up with this. :)

For a boy who's clueless:
I can't tell you how to be a man,
But I can tell you how to be my man.
Melt my heart with your chivalrous deeds,
Hold the door for me, help those in need,
Give me your jacket when I'm cold, or hug me instead,
Hold my hands, make me feel secure,
Take my hands; you lead,
Don't be a dictator or too much a democrat,
Take me to a place where we're both comfortable at,
Talk to me, be my best friend,
Love God first and love me then,
Cheer me up when I feel down,
Lend an ear, learn to calm me down,
Know my flaws and accept them all,
Be ready to be known, don't hold onto your ego,
Share everything with me,
Simple and complicated,
Even if it invokes anger or jealousy,
I rather the truth than something twisted,
Surprise me, romance me,
Doesn't need to be expensive,
Carry me like a kid,
Kiss me on the lips,
Tell me how you feel about me,
Whenever it comes to your mind,
Fight with me but don't let it last for a night,
Apologise first if I am stubborn,
I'll know my fault and then I'll ask for your pardon,
Joke with me, flirt with me,
Even when we're old,
Hold my hand and help me stand,
Correct me in quiet when I misunderstand,
Teach me when I'm wrong but don't embarass me,
Tease me all you want but never insult me,
Go through trials with me,
Don't ever think of leaving me,
Pray for me and our future,
Pray for those who need a cure,
Love me more than you love your money,
Speak out words as sweet as honey,
Though tis' much I ask overwhelms,
Just be who you are,
If you truly love God, then me,
These will naturally be up to par.
Then one day, when we have kids, we'll teach them how to love,
Don't be frightened, be patient with me, as I as well would love to do all of the above,
For you.
