Image for the poem Keep Me Near

Keep Me Near

keep me near
as close as heartbeats
with the pulse you hear
strong and tight

hold me near
with the touches of your fingers
one hand on my shoulder
the smile on your lips

always be there
even as I lay down here
cold and so alone
accompanied by love's vision
