A Gentleman

I want a gentleman.

I don't need a bad boy to take me for a ride,
a cardiac collide with bad attitude and restlessness.
I want to be more than a sacrifice on the altar of his lusts,
his games, just another notch on his leather belt.

I want a gentleman.
I want to be taken down slow, kissed breathless.
A sweet collapse into bed, a gentle joining of spirits,
not just two bodies.

I don't need the stereotypes.
I am not a saviour come to rescue the damned.
I can't change someone who doesn't want to be changed.
I am so much more than that.
