Poetic Monday - There Was a Man

There Was a Man

There was a man who loved too hard
He indulged himself with kindness
Embraced a woman's anatomy
Took time to mind her mental capacity
Listened to every crying situation
Gave a tissue when she felt she couldn't make it
And advice when her visions were missing eye sight
He thought to himself
What woman would not want a man who treasured her wealth?
I give more than I have
I fight harder than I should
I try much more than I usually would
Women don't want to be protected
If they did
I should be happily married with kids
Instead I'm alone
Lonely with abundance of female friends
Who appreciate my caring sense
But my presence is not presently appreciated
Romance for me is not in question
They love me for me
So i guess there is no more love left for my heart's desire
A woman I can constantly stand by her side
Cater to her pride
Just fulfilling her body cravings
Supplying her emotions with wrapping papers
Giving the gift of love
Because I can love for eternity
So where is my woman to love me internally?
Or will I always be the passionate friend
Who heart is never tended to
Plays the part of the best male friend she ever knew.
There was a man who loved too hard
He indulged himself with kindness
Embraced a woman's anatomy
Took time to mind her mental capacity
Listened to every crying situation
Gave a tissue when she felt she could not make it.
This man lays with patience...
Praying for a wife all his life
So cursed is the man who pours out his soul
Solely to make a woman's world completely whole
Will he ever know...?
