Crave

Deep voice cradled with tender
Rough hands smoothing it better
The fears hunches my back, 
He arches it again with sweet words of wonder
When I doubt all I am 
He hugs my angels and my monsters
Reminds me of parts I have stop loving 
His calm eyes find my frightened 
So he lets me see the storm brewing within 
He is chaos reining in to wash my worries 
Burning passion with worship so deep 
In awe I am as I weep 
With joy and want and a thousand more things 
Like kisses on the blade of my shoulder 
To relax them for a moment 
Before the world jumps on it 
Or a silent confession of love 
From eyes that are afraid to hurt 
I relax like water finally meeting 
The golden bowl it dreamt of 
And let myself be the thirst 
That craves those little moments 
In a world full of grand ones.
