VELVET TEARS

His voice like softened sand
as the waters rush to shore
His lips are passion filled,
begging for still more

His eyes reflective pools,
that tell me of his years
Shadows of his hurt,
as they flow with velvet tears

His words stretch out his story,
his life so filled with pain
His moments of pure glory,
his days of storm and rain

Carried by his ego,
his willful gallant stride
He walks erect with graceful gait,
guided by his pride

His presence gives me a feeling,
to hold him close and tight
To kiss his lips with tenderness,
to turn the wrong to right

I want to Cradled him in my arms,
snuggle him to my breast
Wipe away his teardrops,
and give him all my best

I'll take some thread and ribbon,
stitch the wounds and seal
I'll bind his broken heart again,
to mend it and to heal

My words are soothing lotion,
a  curing  balsam  lake
The lanolin of love's pure touch,
that will take away his ache
