My first poem of 1986, about a relationship


If You Were My Girl


Once again with pen in hand,
I wish to God to understand,
how to tell you I want you near,
to convince you I'm sincere.

To take away all your doubt,
to give reason, to give a shout,
to love you much with total trust,
to love you true and not with lust.

To hold you high with meaning too,
to tell the things I want to do,
to lay by you and keep you warm,
to love you deep and keep from harm.

With all my strength to hold you tight,
to be with you both day and night,
to care for you in all you do,
to prove that, I do love you !

Knowman
