You And Your Perfect Self....

Most nights
I can't sleep
Most days,
I can't think
I can't...
Be
Without a reminder of you
And your feelings for me


A stuffed toy
On my pillow
A quote of yours
Written on my chest
Your name
Doodled on my wrist
It gets me by
It makes me forget
That you can't hold me
When I need your warmth
Or kiss me
When I need your love
Or make love to me
When I need your flesh
Or fall asleep next to me
When I need your presence


But mainly, 
The fact that I trust you
And know these feelings are real
That you won't kick me 
When I'm down
That you won't toss me aside when all I do
Is give you my love
That you won't step on me
Like the dirt beneath your feet.
That this love....
Is mutual.
And so.....
You and your perfect eyes


Keep me alive.
