He is....

He is a rare diamond within a pile of coals
So you have to peel away the coals to get to him.

He exudes confidence
It pours out of him like chocolate milk in a glass.

He exemplifies manhood
Because his masculinity is not measured by earthly things.

He is handsome and sexy
When he walks into a room, heads turn, making my heart beat a million miles an hour.

He has a strong sense of self
His worth is defined only by him, not anyone else.

He always has a way of making others smile
Because he understand the power of positive energy.

He is a man who prays
For he recognizes and yields to the power of God.

He is always full of laughter
Never wanting to become a person who is always serious.

He is a fighter
Never allowing the trials and principalities of life to destroy him or his loved ones.

He is a lover
Knowing that love can answer all problems, because God is love.

He is a provider
Giving everything he possibly can, even if it's not always monetary.

He is a protector
Constantly shielding and protecting his loved ones.

He is passionate
Always adding a dash of spice to everything he does.

He is open-minded
Allowing himself to always be tolerant and accepting of people and issues that are different than his own.

He is beautiful
Because his inner essence radiates outwardly, causing him to glow.

He is a culture-keeper
Constantly reminding himself and others that his culture should be celebrated, instead of a label of shame.

He is a student
Always learning new things, never thinking that he knows it all.

He is gentle
Never laying his hand on a woman to cause her harm, but only to lovingly caress her.

He is strong
Scooping you up and carrying you to the bed.

He is honest
Never hesitating to call a spade a spade.

He is a genuine gentleman
Recognizing that womanhood should be honored.

He is a visionary
Knowing that it does not yet appear what he shall be.

He is a man
Meant to compliment a woman, not to dominate, complete, or degrade her.

He is a walking oxymoron
Because he is so many things wrapped up in one person.

This is my love letter, dedicated to you
My handsome, strong, insightful men.

For you represent manhood at it's best
Showing these boys what they should aspire to become.

Believe it or not,
I do love you.

Even if I spit my feminist banter
And express my views about women's rights.

The only thing I ask
Is that you love me as much as I love you.

I want you to choose me
The woman who will always be your rock.

Because of who you are,
I'd be honored to stand by your side.

So many times we are overlooked, degraded, and mistreated.
The only thing we ask is that you allow us to love you and love us in return.

While there's so much at stake when it comes to love,
Understand that we have always loved everything about you.

Some of us constantly disrespect your manhood
Because only you can hurt us the way you do.

It hurts me to see others emasculate you
Because I know you are the King in our community.

It also hurts us when you do not understand who you are
Because we know your power and love you for it.

So I'm here to remind you
That you are amazing.

He is...
You
