More
You look at me
Eyes tinted with supplication
Helpless, In need, and Expectant
The look in your eyes asks me for more
But don’t you know I have given my all?
Don’t you know I always do?
I pour out my soul
In helpless surrender
All that I have floods around you
Kisses you lightly
Gently pushes you forward
The love drains me
But I lie satisfied
Content, Happy, and Exhausted
And I look at you
Eyes barely open
Watching the waves sway you
Caress you
And bring you closer to where you’d like to be
And before I sleep I relish in your happiness
I breathe it in proudly
And before I sleep I notice you looking at me
Eyes tinted with supplication
Helpless, In need, and Expectant
The look in your eyes asks me for more
And I cry because I cannot give it
And it hurts me, as I lie there knowing
That surely if you would like me to live
You would accept that there is nothing more that I can give.
