Hold me in within your arms
bring me comfort and chase away all harm
whisper everything that I mean to you
and all the things you want to do
let your fingers guide themselves through my hair
show me that someone does care
let me know that you are here
hold me tight whispering words of love
that I can never hear enough of
press me against your chest
fall asleep to the sound of your heartbeat relieving my stress
something so true and sweet
as you mutter sweet words to me
never let me go
show me don't tell me
Market stall yielded, fifty cents
Book well read, pages stained
Corner down, forgotten interest
Someone was held spellbound.
Print on page, highlighted yellow
Looks with detachment at me
I underline significant words
Eyes slowly opened see.
Readers in future might puzzle
At marks and observations
Writings on the wall-so to speak
They will add own notations.`
