Inner Thoughts

A slow burn love

Years had passed,
And still my heart is beating fast,
For the man who stole my heart,
With his kindness, right from the start.

I never knew love could be so pure,
With every passing day, it only matures,
He respects my choices, my decisions,
And never pushes for his own ambitions.

Two years have gone by, and not once,
Did he dare to ask for more, to pounce,
On my body, my heart, my soul,
For he knows the true meaning of control.

In a world where love is often tainted,
By selfish desires and needs that are painted,
He stands out, like a shining star,
A man who respects, no matter how far.

All the bad things I expected him to do,
Never came true, for his love is true,
He never crossed my boundaries,
But instead, he showered me with love and tenderness.

I waited for the red flags to appear,
But with him, they were never near,
He is a man of honor and grace,
A rare gem, in this chaotic race.

I never knew this kind of love was possible,
A love that is pure, and oh so blissful,
A love that grows stronger with every day,
A love that will never fade away.

So here I am, falling deeper in love,
With this man, sent to me from above,
A slow burn love, that's worth the wait.
In his arms, I've found my soulmate.
