he hides her in him, covers her body with his stare
every pulsing beat of her heart, calls him unto her, beckons him into her presence
nothing in or of this world could explain to him her soul, the depth of her desire for him
wanting each breath of life to be consumed by him, for his obsession to breed
his hands, lips, eyes tenderly caress her ache, her constant ache for love
unlike any she has ever known, his eyes harness truth, pain, and glimmers of hope
