I don’t know if you noticed darling, <br />But from the first day I professed my love <br />I disarmed and disrobed myself before you. <br />I did this not out of vanity or weakness, <br />But so that you would never feel <br />That I wanted to overpower you, <br />Or take any advantage of your heart. <br />I have wanted you to know that I am <br />Not a man who would take benefit <br />Of my position or state in life. <br /> <br />And so I ask now that you understand, <br />That my love is real. <br />It is not the fancy of a playboy or tyrant. <br />It is the longing of man who knows <br />Deeply and has found what he wants. <br />A man who seeks true, higher love, <br />From you, because you are the one.<br /><br />Hal Caufield<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/have-you-noticed-7/
