All I Ask Of You

A smile

A hello

A hug

A good morning

Warm thoughts

Assurance

Your confidence

Your fears

Your inhibitions

Your tears

The truth

Complete and whole

Spoken feelings

Shared emotions

The touch of a hand

The pat on the back

The kiss on crying eyes

And flushing cheeks.

 

A lover

A friend

A mother

Belief in me

Felt, not necessarily proven

Shown, not with words woven

To be a child

To transcend innocence

To be a mate

To transcend endurance

Unspoken thoughts

Words uttered through the eyes

The serenity of understanding

The peace of undemanding

Fetters amiss

Freedom of choice

Emotions heard

Without a voice.

 

A trust

A faith

A confidence

Lust born out of passion

Patience not rationed

The gift to dream

The power to make them real

The right to give

And say what you feel

When uncombed hair bothers you not

As neither would the dress with a spot

To be what you are

To leave but never go far

Unchained

Yet held

Not a past

But a constant now

Love, without asking how.

 

A companion

A soul mate

A twin

Togetherness

Devoid of guilt

An empty house

With dreams built

A lifetime to refurbish

Without the blemish

Of shackles

Of society

Of selfishness

To understand my love

One more lifetime

Is All I Ask Of You.
