...



The things you say
you want...
The things you say...
you need...in a man

are here...
in front of you....in me.

I’ve  heard your words...
shared your thoughts...
dried your tears...

listened to you describe
the Him you want...
In front of you...

right here...in me.

I've seen you look
with speculation

and then watched as
your eyes went away

to the place and the
past that still pulls
you...

A siren's song... calling you
to wreak your emotions

on rocks of indifference
and disdain.

returning here ...with your
shattered expectations

to your safe harbour...
here...with me

to rest...to heal.

until you hear again the call
of sweet agony...

and with quiet desperation
return... to that place

when what you seek
is here with me...
