this poem seems to try to do a little too much, but even so....

these hands
will never knead
the words I'd pour
into your skin
massaging away the cares
out of your days
and into my dreams
where I could lock
your loneliness forever
safely away inside
my Rock of Gibraltar heart
an island worth knowing about
but never worth a
visit
and certainly
never a holiday
