Words

Your words grip me
 like I long for you to...

And they warm me
 like your body should 
   be warming mine

They caress me softly
 as I imagine you would
  if you could

Your words dry my tears
  and ease my mind

They are sweet
 and gentle
   and kind

Like you

They carry me through
  another day
    of wanting
      and needing
        your love

Your words,
  you say,
   "Are not much"

But, you just don't know
 how you touch me
  with your words...
