naked

what words ought leave these lips

such that they feel like rain

like hungry happy honey sips

that drink away your pain

eager compliments I’ve tried

that gush like a river in spate

and also the odd surprise
and gestures that carry weight

next I’ve spoken with sense

the sense of a man who’s fair

but quite like a neighbor’s fence

it’s but only cut off our air

and I’ve even also kept mum

through repartees that jump and bay

but that’s made matters more glum

like I’d said all I had to say

but say I will here and now

and this here is my plea

I love you so much, my love

why don’t you, won’t you just see?
