I’d love to see him sleep
See dreams creep across his face
Hold him when the nightmares come
Breathe calmness and replace

Has eyes of seas, has my love unseen
Another history he treads
Still my love, it swims, escapes the cage
Words only, for me, blessed

Oh, to hold and kiss him
From sunshine through to dusk
Share the weight of his demons
Attempt to satisfy his lusts

He is a perfect god
For I imagined that he’d be
Our perfect heaven afterlife
Promises achieved

The End.
