In Shades of Grey

For Those Who Crave a Love Beyond Black and White

To all the girls with hearts that crave,

A man who walks both bold and brave,

Not black, not white, but shades between,

A moral grey that gleams unseen.

He’s not a saint, nor devil’s kin,

His flaws are where his truths begin.

He breaks the rules, yet holds a code,

A complex heart, a winding road.

His words may cut, his gaze may burn,

But through the storm, you’ll always learn,

That in his arms, both soft and strong,

You’ll find a place where you belong.

He’s fierce, he’s flawed, he’s hard to tame,

But loves with fire, not for acclaim.

A paradox, both wild and true,

A man who sees the strength in you.

So here’s to girls who dare to say,

"I’ll take the man who lives in grey."

For love’s not meant for simple lines,

It thrives in hues, in shades, it shines.
