You

You. You took the time to know me, the real me

You. You took the time to wipe away my tears before they had a chance to fall
You. You took the the time to win my heart
You. You took the time to make me believe in love 
You. You took the time for me to take off any mask I’d wear
You. You took the time to chase away my demons
You. You took the time to hold me when I needed it
You. You took the time to know what I liked abs what I didn’t 
You. You took the time to be my shelter when I wanted to run away. 
You. You took the time to play with my hair as o drifted off to sleep.
You. You took the time to catch me every time I would fall. 
You. You took the time to always encourage me
You. You to the time to love me when I wasn’t so lovable
You. You took the time hold my hand when I was afraid 
You. You took the time to show me what real love felt like

Stollen

.

I miss a few items

when you leave for work;

there were kisses

and touching in plenitude.

.

Can you tell me where

the caressed went?

There is no propinquity

in the kitchen or

beneath the shower

when I turn it on.

.

Gone is the heavy voice

from every room, both ears.

the scrathy beard agains

smoith skin, can't find

it anywhere.

.

When you come home

help me find hands

that surprise me, the smile

to tease, and a thrilled

basso laughter that was

lost when you went to

the store, for pick-ups,

or chores, and the weekly

visits to mom or your brother

for far too long.

I seldom write sentiment - but this was an interesting mofif and structure. ~S~
