The phone rings,
your voice whimpering,
all I hear is "I'm coming over.",
all I can do is listen,
the doorbell rings,
I answer it,
in your sweats,
your crying,
your make up runs,
your hair is a mess,
I grab hold of you tight,
I tell you to just let it all out,
I'm here,
please just let it all out,
I'm here,
place your head on my shoulders,
I'm here,
hold me tight,
I'm here,
you soak my shoulders,
and...I'm still here,
you fall asleep in my arms,
I hold you tight,
I hold you still awake till morn,
you awaken to me smiling...
why am I smiling?
because I know that your safe,
you start to cry,
we hold eachother for hours with nary a sound,
and watch as the sun arises to another day,
and know this I will do it again and again always,
why?
because I love you...
