storm

Empty Shelter

If you are tired

Let me lay you down

My hands will murmur soft lullabies

into your hair.

If my feet grow weak

You can carry me.

If the wind and the rain

make you shiver

I’ll shelter you from any storm.

And I’ll be there for you

as you are there for me.

Paying in kisses and gentle words

Take from me as often as you give.
