WHEN IN RELATIONSHIP

Your woman wants to curl

beside you on a sofa under a blanket,

your fingers to wander

absently in her hair.

Lights down,

a candle on the table,

something on the TV

as an excuse to be close.

When you realize

this, that it's all she wants

on that moment, that it's

the best you can give to her

- then congratulations, my friend,

you have grown, you have learned to be a man

measured by more than

just the thing in your pants.
