Dress me slowly,
for I find myself in a rush.
Smile with me,
for I carry the weight of loneliness.
Share your thoughts,
for I will believe in every word.
Recite me a poem,
for I long to hear your voice.
Speak of science,
for I feel like an artist lost in creation.
Take me under your wings,
for I struggle to find my way.
Fill me with music,
for I cannot dance without your rhythm.
Caress my forehead,
for worry clings to my brow.
Tell me of love,
for I stand here, incredulous and yearning.
Offer me your hand,
for I seek your strength to carry me.
Let me see your face,
for I am lost in the dark.
Offer me a drink,
for I thirst for your presence.
Concede your love,
for my heart is overflowing with affection.
Is it too much to ask?
Rolando Matias

A most poignant writing encompassing reciprocal love.
No ego. No judgement. Simple understanding of the hearts' needs.
