Black Man

Strong arms and a masculine build.

Feelings of safety and security;

Are feelings that I long to feel.

You give me hope that that day may come;

Within a future that includes you,

That my strong will my come undone.

 

I want to feel as though a woman should.

I want to take care of you and our kids,

Knowing that with you the outcome is always good.

I will cook your meals and wash your clothes.

Ease your mind and relax your body.

After long days of work I will even rub your toes.

 

These are all the feelings a real man brings out of me.

Your strength and dominance makes me submit.

I'm tired of carrying all burdens life throws at me.

I need your kind of love to make me complete.

A strong mind, a strong will, and a strong sense of unity.

Your strength and my tenderness together we can defeat.

 

The many obstacles that life may present,

Do not stand a chance against our stronghold.

United in love and trust and everything decent.

With you I don't just see a man.

I see strength, confidence, security, and love.

We see things in each other that no other person may understand.

We are a force of nature to be reckoned with.

We represent with absolution that strong black love does exist!
