Does She

    While he sleeps does she notice how tough he can be, yet how soft he looks in muted light? Silver strands silken across pillow. Tenderly tan where loops kiss his chest, which holds a heart weak and strong. Does she touch in tenderness a tired back from being driven, where from birth tore a scar to bear the weight of responsibility?
    Does she feel his ease as he minutes his days, satisfied in a hunger. Does she watch from afar, how he caresses in words and fingerprints a young life he brought to this earth, seeing there is no bottom to his love? Does she find she has tears because she allowed herself to love him without realizing it? Does she know patience because he is quiet? Is she willing to wait? Can she forget about herself and give up everything for him?
    There is a salty rain in his kiss. Quenching drips, which seasons you as well as tempting you to want more. Does she taste it? And can she feel a touch of fire that smolders as well as cools, where time away from him burns her skin? Thinking of a smile that melts stone making walls built, fall brick by brick.
    Does she feed him food for thought in the appetite he has without knowing this growl he hears in himself, is the pains of hunger from being alone? Does she tempt him with appetizers, to later show him she is the main meal and a sweet dessert?
    Will she remind him she is a woman, soft and wanting?  Does she sow him seeds, the place he has waited for and never found in a nomads search, moving from here to there never feeling the home? Can she show him security is in being, not in the desert oasis, but where feet are planted?
    In his arms, is a freedom to fly to heights unknown before, or does she run like me confused and afraid of what she touches is real. Can she understand his un-complication? Where there are no lines to trip and spin of sticky webs waiting to harm. Can she know there is a safe place there, unlike me that wanted to reach and kept it at arms length as not to feel the sting of the baiting spider?
    Will she make him feel he is special, like he is the only whisper needed to hear? Does she tenderly hold him close but lax enough not to smother? Can she say how she feels instead of hiding behind the fear of words? Can she teach him not to fear her, so he will know that sometimes need is not always a weakness?  Can she gently show him that giving in is not letting go?
    Does she? I wonder does she, or is she stupid like me? I pray not, for he deserves to be loved.

I hate to hear you call yourself down in comparison to this character, because is it ever to late to change an action not carried out, that pertains to love? I hope she does, and I hope you do as well.

I enjoyed this Helen.

There was a time when things got to hard to be able to feed all thease areas in eachother... but.... I will never forget... never forget again... and never fear all the pain I risk in the giving..for fear of the pain in the regret of not

and neither should you

beautiful.... perfect

I'm sorry I have to be honest. I think "Does she" would be better left out of this piece.
