Part II
(if you have not read "part I", please do so now before reading this)
You ask, do I qualify.
Can I fulfill your needs and become the man you need me to be?
My sister, are you prepared for what you've asked for?
Can you handle the responsibility?
Can you accept that, by GOD, I am the chosen
one, the authority, the comforter, and the head?
Will you submit and willingly follow my path?
Or will you fight with me instead?
If I am your King, will you treat me as such?
Will I get the best of your beauty an! d poise?
Or will I be subjected to an appearance
neglected, and checked with some serious noise?
When I talk, will you listen?
I mean whole heartedly and feel me?
Or will you rush me just to make your point too?
Can I be the man at all times? Even when it hurts?
Or is it just when it's convenient for you?
Can you love me for me, and not who you wish I could be?
Will you see the strong Black Man within?
Or will you always remind me of the all
the past brothers behind me and make me pay for their sins?
If I don't send you flowers the day your co-worker
received some, will you know that I love you still?
Or will my good name be uttered along with those other doggish brothers?
Will you question if my commitment is real?
Will you be patient and teach me to understand you,
and allow my knowledge of your needs to grow?
Or will you shut me out when I ask, Baby
what's wrong?
Or will you respond with, "Well a REAL man would know!"
When we first met, what was it that ca! ught your
eye? Was it my mind, my heart, my personality?
Or was it my suit, or my job, or do you love
what I drive, instead of what's driving me?
Yes I can, and I will, make love to you from midnight to the dawning of the sun.
But, if I tell you I'm tired, will you trust
I'm sincere or believe that there must be another one?
My sister, I love you and my heart can be yours. No woman could lead me astray.
But like you, I have needs, so I beg of you, please, in this love thang meet me half way.
In life's tough times I'll hold you, in the rough times I'll mold you;
your simplest wish will be my command.
My life is yours if need be.
Yes you can fully bleed me, and when hell comes, in your place, I'll stand.
A good relationship is a powerful institution that must be built on a foundation of two.
So to answer your question,
YES sister, I do qualify

i know you do :o)
Very nice!
Now if we can only get more of our brothers to be comfortable communicating this message and expressing their feelings. I'm in no way putting the blame solely on you brothers, however there are PLENTY of sisters that WANT their men to open up, want to have free communication and understand one another. However, too many Black men have been told to withhold their feelings and "be a man" OR some triflin' woman in the past has disregarded his feelings to the point that he no longer shares.
Either way, as it relates to THIS part of your three part post...one reap what one sows. If you (and not you, you...but you, men) are a man who is not comfortable opening up like you have in this poem, then you have to expect that we are going to wonder why you are too tired to make love, or get disappointed when you don't send flowers, etc. BUT...as long as men are honest, forthcoming, open and will allow themselves to be vulnerable - you will more than likely get the support from your woman that you deserve.
That is IF you have made the right choice in a woman...which clearly you have :o) *SHOUT OUT TO TTD!*
