Gentle Man

Gentle man
I see your face
Before my eyes
And I am lost
In daydreams

Your smile
Is like a beacon to me
Your soul a fire
Shining brightly

Oh Lord
I've never felt
This way before
Never yearned so much
For one man's touch
And there you are
Like and evening star
Alone you wait
For a woman's wish

Twinkle twinkle
Little star
How I wonder
Who you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
I wish I may
I wish I might
Have my wish
Come true tonight

Gentle man
Take my hand
Hold me close
Oh god, don't let go
'Cause you're my wish
No better man know I
All my dreams
Lie in your eyes

Gentle man
Gentle man
Hear my song
My prayer for you!

This is actually a song I wrote, so not really a poem, but lyrics. For the curious, nah, it wasn't about anybody, I was feeling a little lonely at the time and kind of wished there was someone out there wishing I was out there.
