This is me, for you

By Rebel tiGer King

How can i deny the smile
ivory dipped above
the silk of your lips
The curves of your hips,
traced in the dark
with the pale of the sun
Milky skin laced
beneath burning cigaretts
broken glass
and lonely bar's.
The flow of you
your mesh vines dropping
life from your head
Something
of a net to catch me when
you need me.
Those tears
sliding down your cheeks
flowing like a stairway
past heaven.
I am your wind
here to dry them off
I am your sun
here to keep you warm
i am your wall
here to give you strength
I am....
but a man
sidestruck and bound
to who you are.
I care....
