Love Poem: Healing Waters

Healing Waters

They say my love's like healing waters,
so uncover all your wounds.
Only if you let them, the drops of me could save you.

They say you can touch and not be touched
and love but not be loved...
not be loved enough
at least that's what 
I say.

Here I am holding unconditional love,
which wouldn't seem much 
to look at me but...
the cooling sensation of my waters
trickling over your cuts and scars
could be yours, could be yours.
Couldn't be anyone's but yours.

Never have to stay on your knees
begging please
for love from me.

Those hard to get games
I'd forgotten how to play
as soon as I saw your face.

I'd love you if there was nothing in it for me.
I'd love you if there was nothing in it for me.

You are what's in it for me
and that's all I'll ever need.
