I Want To Be A Book
i want to be a book
to cover your innocent
nakedness
of the soul
to keep you
warm and safe
from the cold
night
every page
in its earthy nature
will drink
every pearl
of your tear
the morning dew
in your dream
every word
a hand
to answer your
gentle touch
the way a word
should be caressed
for i have nothing
to give you
but the stars
on the dome
of my night
[art by chagall]
