This love he feels
cannot be defined
only realized
when recalling her eyes
he is drawn to the moment
sweet smile somber
he might feel her pain
with her elegance
he is designed to restrain
any trace of loneliness
might ooze from her lips,
instead would he follow
the ends of the earth
to be by her side,
to hold her in swift
protect her from a tide
that represents
a societal scrutiny.
though he mix his words
with confusion
there is only love
would emanate his heart
to let her supple
touch … his soul,
together
they each in their quiet
would hearts never fail.
