They are everything
    Bring us to our knees
    They tear us apart

    How are we free
    When they have our heart?

    They are everything
    all mighty and strong
    They shake our world
    Tell us right from wrong

    But where are they?
    Where have they gone?

    The men in our lives
    Are for whom we long
    The men in our lives
    Seeming so strong
    They hold us up
    And tear us down

    The men in our lives
    Are stronger now

    As we give them more
    Our love
    Our hearts
    Our whole self we pour

    They absorb us
    And sweep us away
    The men in our lives
    Can always have their way

    And so many men in our lives tend to stray

    But who are we
    To be so weak?
    And who are we
    To not even speak?

    They create us
    Captivate us
    With their eyes
    Their opinions break us in two
    But we look into their eyes
    And still say, “I need you”

    They come and go as they please
    Break our hearts with so much ease

    From the fathers that leave
    To the boys that cheat
    To the pain that brings us to our knees

    The men in our lives are all that we need

I climbed inside her mind,
and made her lips speak poetry.
She spoke it beautifully.
And, since I speak it fluently,
We spoke it, frequently,
in many tongues.
We covered her body of work,
with lessons of anatomy.
Blowing her mind,
turning the pages,
with my hands of time,
until we both climaxed.
When she finished, I was done.
