Extempore

i want to pull my fingers
through silky dark hair
and stare deep
within you
as you watch me unfold
would it be fear or merely
truth my soul finds
i want to wash away your
Pain
with a touch of silk to soothe
your weary mind and help you
grow
our of once lost wonder
i want to light your beautiful
face with a smile
to show the way home
to me
i want to hold you close
to me hearts in unison
as i lead you...
i want you
