When we first met,
I thought you were
A hottie.
I didn't know a thing
About your fame, career,
Reputation or money
And had not Googled
Your name.
I liked you:
The handsome, fit,
Unassuming,
Polite and quiet,
Self-restrained,
Self-aware,
Shy and intelligent,
Potentially affectionate,
And strong but gentle man.
It's the intrinsic parts
I found attractive.
On our first date
You used interview
Techniques and tactics
As a personal shield
Or self-protection reflex
So you could determine
Whether to take
Any risk at all.
You shared
As much of yourself
As you could
While trying
To protect your
Golden heart.
No matter your
Past experience,
Even now that
We've parted,
Rest assured
I'll never take
Or ask for anything
From you.
Thanks for being
My muse.
