With her eyes <br />She asks so much of me <br />Her hands, unsteady in a rush <br />Watching her fingers <br />Rising to her weakness <br />Beckoning all I can afford <br />Yet, being here for her <br />Is all that I can do <br />These yearnings <br />In which I find myself <br />In attendance <br />(wanting to attend to) <br />Her desires grow stronger <br />And I know what she wishes <br />These longings are rooted <br />Deep within her womanhood <br />And I provide for them as I can <br />Her friends know me as "distant" <br />Yet not beyond reach <br />They smile from the doorway <br />Approaching her in their way <br />Their airs fill the room with jasmine <br />And patchouli <br />They love her as she needs them to <br />More than I could know <br /> <br />Yet not more than I do <br />
