Love

[youtube.com/watch?v=nuT8vZSN0gw]

You are my adrenalin
heart races 
my everything
holding hands
kissing lips
cuddles in the dark
breathing is easier
when you are around

are words enough
to tell you
looking into blue eyes
love that radiates
I warm from the inside

a tender touch a loving sigh
knowing we are one
how can I tell you
you are my rock
you have my back
my world’s complete
from the day
you entered it

to listen to each other
to share both kinds of tears
pulling faces to make me laugh
silly dances on the kitchen floor
you are all I wished for
and  really so much more

For my Mr. S

Survival

She spreads her legs
wide for their pleasure
how many today?

She loses touch with
what’s only a number

another man who sweats and
heaves and cries when done

they grunt and lick and feel

later

she walks along the river
holding hands with a man
that knows how to love

she dreams

of children laughing
in the yard

she prays

this man will finish soon
have his way be gone
leave his money on the stand

she wants

Holding Hands

REACH for my hand my little one, as your first steps bring you into my arms.

CLING to my hand my little one, as we look both ways before we cross.

BLOW me a kiss with your hand my little one, as I leave you on your first day of kinder.

WAVE your hand excitedly my little one, as you enter the schoolyard gates.

GRASP tight my hands my little one, as you cry with your first broken heart.

CLUTCH my hands with joy my little one, when you have met the man of your dreams.

SQUEEZE my hand my now grown up one, as you travel your own path.

R for how remarkable you both are.

C for how captivating you both can be

B for beautiful beyond words

W for words can’t describe how I love you both

G for the gladness you both bring to my heart

C for how charming you both are

S for so many years of happiness you have brought me

To my girls.
