...Yet I Love Him Poem by Lizelle 'Leasel' Martins

This man of mine
That loves me
That loves me for me
That loves me through it all
That wants to be there
Through it all
Holding me
Carrying me
And loving me

I wanna break these chains down
Break these walls down
But I'm scared
That he is just a dream
An illusion of my daily dreams
That he might leave
Realizing it ain’t for him
How do I trust myself
How do I trust him
How do I trust what we share

What I feel is overwhelming
What I feel scares me
What I feel for him...
I love this man
Yes I said it...
I am me with him
He makes me smile
An inner smile
That willingly comes to surface
He makes me wanna love again
He makes me wanna trust again
He makes me believe again
Embrace what the universe has to offer us

But I am afraid at times
And yet I Love Him
