Half of a man...Part of a King
God took man’s rib to form the woman
But he took my heart to form you
I’ve lost half my ability to function
Heartless to every other woman in view
Going through the motions, emotionless
Not even bothering to pretend
Ever since you removed your love from me
I can never be more than half of a man
I’ve played the fool for you
I’ve been playing with women’s hearts ever since
All these ladies wanna be my princess
But I only wanna be your charming Prince
Other women wanna possess me
But I could never be their everything
I can’t be wholehearted without you
Without my Queen I’m only part of a King
But he took my heart to form you
I’ve lost half my ability to function
Heartless to every other woman in view
Going through the motions, emotionless
Not even bothering to pretend
Ever since you removed your love from me
I can never be more than half of a man
I’ve played the fool for you
I’ve been playing with women’s hearts ever since
All these ladies wanna be my princess
But I only wanna be your charming Prince
Other women wanna possess me
But I could never be their everything
I can’t be wholehearted without you
Without my Queen I’m only part of a King

This is actually quite a romantic poem ( except for the whole playing with other women, of course ).

“God took man’s rib to form the woman
But he took my heart to form you
I’ve lost half my ability to function
Heartless to every other woman in view...”
That first stanza was breathtakingly deep and meaningful !
Hmm. A gorgeous truth that not too many will ever disclose if they’ve come into contact with a lover so near & dear to them !
A lovely tender write, Absence.... 🌹😇😈 👑
