He laid hands on me
Strong manly hands
And found the essence of me
I craved his love and he was crazy about me
We were inseparable
There was no him without me
So, they’d tease us about marriage and children
My forever love, his Oshun, his deity.
He laid hands on me
Strong manly hands
And my heart deceived me
My mind gave me up
To a man whose thirst for me
Was unlike anything I’d ever experienced
So, when he reached for me
My body never resisted.
He laid hands on me
Strong manly hands
And told me that the world was ours
That there was nothing he won’t do for me
Because I was his and he was mine
Ours was a love sealed by time
So, in his words I found assurance
My doubts were erased.
He laid hands on me
Strong manly hands
And when he grabbed my wrist
My heart raced and my mind exploded
“Who was that on the phone?”
I was trembling, I was scared, We were alone
So, when he lifted his hand I clenched my jaw
My face felt the impact
He laid hands on me
Strong manly hands
And said he was sorry, that he was in agony
My swollen lips were too sore to move
I felt his head on my bosom
I knew he was hurting
So, I drew him into me
My thighs welcomed him.
He laid hands on me
Strong manly hands
And that night his was renewed
My fears subsided
The seed planted within me
Began to grow quietly
So, my body started changing
My spirit was awakening.
He laid hands on me
Strong manly hands
And caused a revolt in my mind
Four months pregnant
With the child he claimed to adore
Pinned to the wall the minute I walked through the door
So, I pleaded with him for the sake of our child
My soul resigned
He laid hands on her
Strong manly hands
