tell me the secrets that i see hidden in your eyes...
the whispered fears you keep locked from the world
and i will sing you a lullabye
a symphony of love and goofy laughter, corny jokes and awkward soothing
until your smile lights the world again. 

write me a sonnet
tell me the wherefores and the whens and the hows.
fill it with explanations to my mysteries...why it had to be us, duo contra mundum.
and I will paint you a story with our bed as the canvas.
 I will wrap you up in me,a mural of arms and legs holding you tight, of hair fanned across your chest
and fingernails painting the sunset in soft strokes brushed along your spine

 build me a cathedral.
let your arms be my sanctuary, your eyes my confessional,
your heart where I worship and my name sighed from your lips my absolution
and I will fill it with treasures just for you.
the emeralds that sparkle in my eyes when you laugh just for me
the rubies that flush on my cheeks when you give me that look.

 sing me a love song, my love
and let my heart,
 that beats for you
be all the rhythm it needs
