With gentle hands,this giant of a man,
turned callous fingers into a velvet touch.
With lips so tender, he taught me how to surrender,
to cravings of an unquenchable love.
You can still see pain in his dark. eyes
wanting to go forward,
but yet,
still held back in another time.
A place long ago, when
he wasn't mine.
Where will this love/friendship end?
Only this can I tell.
With each day it grows stronger,
two hearts beating to the same rhythm.
Helping each other to remember,
When love stays within.
