Him

Him

I love a man

One with high expectations

Who makes me better

Because he expects the best

Who holds me in such kind regard

That when I fall

It is his disappointment I feel

And yet when I am down

His is the first hand offered

With words that lift me up

Off the ground

He is a man

Who knows what he wants

With a set of standards 

That seem almost impossible to fill

So I love him in my way

The best way that I can

Hoping that it is enough

To earn his love in return

When all I have to offer

Is myself
