Every time I walk
Every time you walk
Away
It hurts.

I want to draw you in close to me
Kiss your nose
And
Along your spine
Listen to the
Oh
So
Feminine
Gasps of
You
I want to be the girl
In your bed
Every night
Forever.

I would be
Full and rounded with
Your child someday
If you'd let me.
I'd like
The only time we part
To be
Work
And knowing
No matter
How bad my day was I could
F
  a
    l
      l
Into your arms
I could let go and trust you.

I would never
Utter
An
"I love you
BUT"
Only
I love you
Perhaps with
So much
Unendingly
Forever
Unconditionally

No matter how much
I give
You are never asking too much
No pain is too great
For me to soothe
No tear too fat and solemn
That I could not kiss it away

I have given
Blood
Sweat
Tears
And
Ink
Literally and entirely and it is NEVER
Too much to ask when you ask for my comfort
My love
And though she doesn't tell you
You are too much for her.
She doesn't want your love
But I pine for it
Long for it
My being aches for want of
Simple words in the soft tones
Of a lover

And please
Just take me
Because I have fallen
And you
Are the only one
Here to catch me
