The Man I Love

I'm a mid fifties black man in love with a 70 year old white man. He knows, I've told him many times. He is the 'man', my boss at one time. It's platonic because he isn't gay, not sexually but he is in many ways. He is the only man who has ever made me feel valuable, worth the oxygen I breathe. My confession, I love him and he lets me love him and he loves me in his way.
