When I'm With Him
He makes me feel real like a part of the earth.
When I’m with him, masks and pretense fall away.
Contradictions and hesitation fade
when I feel his firmness for me.
Our futures are for our making.
Our pasts are for our remembering.
When I’m with him, masks and pretense fall away.
Contradictions and hesitation fade
when I feel his firmness for me.
Our futures are for our making.
Our pasts are for our remembering.

I echo The Oralizer, although the poem could be true of lovers of any age.

When someone keeps you in their thoughts in this way that just makes the love undoubtable.
