About the Poem

This is a poem that I wrote today (April 15, 1999). this poem is to my boyfriend. he is always telling me that I'm too young to be the woman that he wants me to be. I am always telling him that just because I am young doesn't mean that I can't love him the way he needs to be loved. I believe that I can love him just the way he wants as long as he is the man to me, that I need him to be. I need someone that will take care of me and understand and love me excepting me for all that I am and all that I will become in the future.

The Woman You Want Me To Be

Yes, baby, I can be the woman you want me to be.
But, the question is, can you be the man that I need.
I can give you everything you're asking for,
But are you really sure.

You question my ability and ponder over my youthfulness,
Baby, the question hasn't been answered yet?
Don't worry, I'll stick around for a while,
Even if it's just to look at your smile.

'Cause I love you, baby, even though I'm young.
The woman you want me to be- - I'll be that one.
You can mold and shape me the way you please.
Just be the man that I need!

This poem is honest and true. Most girls would do anything and change anything for their man. But the men never seem to understand.

I liked this poem alot and can understand, I am younger than the guy I want to be with and he feels the same as I do but he is worried that things will be problematic. I will pass this on to him to show him that as long as I am willing to be me for him and vice versa we can make things work fos us.

sometimes, people don't realize what they have until it's gone...Obviously some are smarter then others and can see beyond age. Age shouldn't be the deciding factor on who you want to be with for the rest of your life...Love should
April
I liked this poem very much.It's kind of describing a relationship I'm in at the moment, and I think the words would suit for me.
Jennifer
I really like this poem a lot it tells true feelings!

This poem is basically saying that a man can run all over a woman. Women don't need men to live in this world; all they need is God.
