Man Enough

Are you man enough to handle me

Sweet enough to care

When darkness falls upon me

Tightly

engulfs me in its snare?

Are you kind enough to look upon

My face smudged up in tears

Strong enough to revel in

My twirling and my fears?

When you lay your cheek upon the sheet

at night to sleep and dream

Do your thoughts fill up within your heart

Engulfed by my esteem?

Don’t run from me don’t quiver

I’m not an apparition

Fear not the gasp of passion

Though complex I may be

Just step into my ether

Roam through my tangled mind

Refuse stray from endeavor

The consequence sublime

The consequence is mine

  1. A true statement to what it is that STELLA needs and wants in her life! Laid right out there for all to see (and think about). She may be complicated, but is worth it if you are up to and willing to fulfill those standards that she lays out there on the table for those to examine, then look at themselves and decide if they have what it takes to fulfill her simple life request. Her writing is powerful and to the point. She couldn’t have said it any clearer! Excellent read!
