The Man You Dreamed Poem by Paul Pruel

Why you loved me?
Is it because I act naturally
Without pretension
Or because I am so quiet
I don’t talk too much
Or because I am cool all the time
I don’t panic no matter
How complicated is the situation
Or is it because I am a sensitive type
Of a person – I do cry
When I am in deep emotions
Aloof sitting alone in the corner
With my tears
Or you liked me ‘cause
I am a man of actions
Or maybe because I am sincere
I seldom say, “I’m sorry”
But when I say it
It is said with sincerity
And touches your heart
Or you loved me because
I am a loving person
Through text messages and calls
I say, “I love you” in the morning
Lunch time, after office hours
And in the evening before sleep
Or because of my being romantic
To you, through gestures
I show my love, care and affections
I hold your hands, hug you
And kiss your lips
Or is it because I am always
Here for you, all sunny and rainy days
Guarding you, protecting you
From any harm and keeping
You safe into my arms
Whatever reasons you have
In mind, I am sure
You loved me because
I am the man you dreamed!
