Love Demons

Never known a love like yours
The roughest hands touch the softest
Tentatively showing me brutal scars
As I study to love you better

A voice like velvet tells me be still
Purring pretty words in my ears
There's heart in every word, every touch
A suppressed giggle in many a hurried kiss

Its a give and take, you and me
A tug of war game of affections
My mischievous nature dances
With your demons in the shadows

I see a shining light within you
Burning stubbornly as ever
Amidst all the pain you've felt
And tears gone down your precious face

I hold you close to me
And my restless spirit hushes
And hurries to kneel at your feet
I am yours and yours alone

These hands are to bind
Captivate me, lead me
A heart branded with your name
Follows the sound of your voice home
