THE RENEGADE ROMANTIC

Here's a poem about how I imagine woman wants us men to be. I'm not quite sure we succeed all the time, but trust me we do try. Since most of the time we fall flat on our faces we tend to look like someone punched our faces in. When we fail you gals sure let's us know. He is a renegade because he goes against the tough guy routine, as he allows his love to shine through.

The renegade romantic
believes in love that lasts
believes in the future
and not in the past

The renegade romantic
never loses his faith
He knows that good will come
to those who wait

The renegade romantic
adores a prolonged kiss
He knows for sure it's heaven
he knows for sure it's bliss

The renegade romantic
will never let you down
Whenever you may need him
he'll always be around

The renegade romantic
will touch you like the wind
The only love he wants to give
comes from deep within

The renegade romantic
will take good care of you
Always knows what to say
and always what to do

The renegade romantic
will soothe your aching soul
Pick you up and dust you off
if ever you should fall

The renegade romantic
will listen when you speak
Always lend a helping hand
and give you what you seek

The renegade romantic
will love you til you die
and no moments you will regret
that he was by your side

This one I really liked. Much of your writing is good, but this one was a bit different. I sense some kind of optimism in it, it's not about death and decay as much of the other stuff seems to be about. I am looking forward to reading your next poem!
