one day I will be ready to love a man
wholly and without any fear
and when that day comes
I will love him hard
like it doesn’t matter
where the sun rises
or sets at the end of the day
when that day comes
I will make sure that he knows
there is no one else
and that I will always be there
on his good days
and more importantly
on his bad days
when that day comes
I will look into his eyes
and hold him tight
and tell him I love him
more than I love sunsets
and that I long for him
more than the promises of the horizon
when that day comes
I will not try to be strong on my own
I will allow myself to be vulnerable
and cry when my heart is heavy
I will let him hold my hand
while my scars
and my bruises heal
when that day comes
I will remind myself everyday
that to truly love a man
is to love his Creator
more than anything else
for without Him, I am nothing
and I would not want to be nothing
for the man I love wholly and without any fear
