If I could ...

    breathe you near
  deep to soul
    end this fear

  lost to you
    and now found
  I would be
    saved and sound

If I could ...

    safely feast
  rest in arms
    of this beast

  I would live
    with each breath
  close to you
    far from death

If I could ...

    love you more
  then I would
    rest for sure

One's outlook can be another's expression.

I loved the use of this!  Finding the beauty in the Beast...tremendous

Once a long time ago, wrote a poem about New York, a city so dearly loved...and called it the Beast.  

Good write
