I’ll Be
By: Noah Eaton
3/3/01

I’ll be the one who steps into your life
To kiss your tears away,
to light a heart jaded in sorrow
To hold you close, and let you share your pain
as I heal your wounds
And hold your hand
as we lean our heads on each other’s shoulder,
giving you purity’s light

I’ll be the one to talk over everything with you,
share thoughts,
and never make you feel lonely again
Giving you everything only I can give you,
Make sure you could be the happiest lover you could be
Lay close beside you with my hand over your shoulder
when you’re feeling dispirited
Massaging your hair,
touching you gently,
reminding you that you are never alone
And I love you with all my life, and this love will never end

I’ll be the nightlight in your soul on every dark day,
the one who tucks you in at night and keeps you safe
Lathering you with the dusty starlight,
from which your tears establish
Bathing your mind with the succulent shampoo of sincerity
A conditioner of trust follows
All I ever want to be is the believer for you
And you the listener, and vice-versa
Every night when we fall asleep
I will rest my head beside yours,
As our warm moans and breathes light our hearts
As in the meantime, I would dream of you
Moonlight’s benign sheets attaching two bonded souls
You…and me…

I’ll be the one to love you
That is what I want to be…
I’ll be yours
And you will be mine…

Noah, I hope you are able to fulfill this lovely poem. If so, you have captured the true essence of romance, and have a very lucky partner.
