I gave her kisses that numbered her life’s many dreams

one for each lust filled fantasy that didn’t include me

a few for each scream that escaped as she leapt awake

from the demons and failures the stalked her. But now

her skin cooed as I touched and wars ended

within muscles that fought off days of sadness

 

Instead my embrace fought them for her

safe and calm within she blended with my frame

to picture a view of us an improbable two

finally chiseled by life to fit what puzzled and pained

both for a time longer than time

bittersweet lyrics sung til tears are made

 

tender echoes of immaculate drops

wrapped sweetly in her smile

warm lips with curves that enticed like hips

now resting after delivering notes of ravishing praise

so engorged by the passion crash she rested

as I sip of each quiver my hands delivered her

 

I held her as she slept as if it was a miracle

as if her insomnia had pneumonia we drove away

anxiety’s bard if only for a moment

savory rise and fall oblivious to worry

and as she opened her eyes she cried

and I said…. I love and need you.
