Love is

What I want you to be

Kissing me

Softly

Caress my heart

Make my apprehensions fall apart

Hold me through the earsplitting thunder

Shield me from the hammering rain

Holding the umbrella that I’m under

Sway me til’ I fall asleep

Retrieve me from dillemas to deep

Discover my feelings with inquisitive tenderness

Be my revelation through life’s loneliness

Kissing strokes of love that hold and shield me

Like a rock of confirmation that you will always wield me

Rescue me when I set out to explore life like

A bird, a dove

Be there, with me, for mine

Be love
