I stretch my hand
Alone you stand waiting
I’ll give you shelter
From the helter skelter
Turmoil visits you
Over load
Confusion
Claustrophobia
Take my hand
Just for a second
Stay in my orbit for a while
Within my cup of gravity
Let me share your sensuality
Spread before me your fragility
I’ll give you shelter
Let me look into your dark eyes
Let me smooth you ink hair
Rest your head
Let the laughter spread
Hold the moment for the future
Don’t be alone
Don’t be scared
Put on the amour
Pick up the sword
Slay the dragons of emotion and doubt
Look them in the eye
Drown their fire
Bury them in your soul

An unusual poem but one which is so well crafted that the reader is quickly carried along with its rhythm.
Thanks
