let me be your greatest love
the kind that does not wander
but speaks truthfully of all things in your presence.


let me have the passion of a child
the kind that is not blinded by reality
but holds on tightly to the beauty of each moment


let me listen to your heartbeat
the rhythmic thumping contained within you
that seeks a bending ear


beat by beat,
tell me of your quiet desires
and the unanswered questions that plague you


show me your simple smile
that lingers in your complex eyes


and let me be your greatest love
the kind that does not wander.
