Therein, you come
touching your warm hand
to my exposed cheek
tousling my hair
lovingly through your fingers
my eyes open slowly
and smile
in my exhausted state
knowing you would come.
Holding me close
as the tears flow
"They said with him
I must go,
but I couldn't!
I wouldn't!"
You gently soothe,
"I know darling, I know...
"My Little Wonder
My Woodland Sprite
With me you must flee
for they shall plan
to do away with you
this night.
Picking me up
a seemingly feather-light bundle
in your loving arms
I close my eyes
and drown in your scent
of fresh rain
My Valiant Comforter
and Intuitive Lover
Steadfast
Strong-willed
In my darkest of moments
never will you disappear
Your mere breath alone
assuages my fears.
The warm sun of morning
caresses my body
as your tender lips
ignite my passionate flame
this moment without words
a myriad of emotions
too profound for name.
The light of your smile
equals that of the sun
your hearty laughter
thrills me more than anyone
You pull me close
ever so near
your nose buried in my hair
as your lips, tinged with moisture
whisper to my ear
"My darling, how dearly I love you
and it is you I shall always adore
for what man, having you
could possibly want for more?"
I purr sensuously
my lips embracing yours
muffling my gutteral tone
wrapping my legs around you
my naked body
molding deliciously with your own
"My knight, my Prince, my King
The love I have given
is due to the love I've been shown
remain with me always, and I promise
in this life
you shall never be alone."
