Love Poem: My Muse

My Muse

Right there,
staring into my brown eyes
as I undress my emotions of past pain.
You hold me, 
reassure me -
your perfect timing.
Right there
at my almost worst,
wishing to quench my thirst 
of heartache and unwise decisions,
overthrown by predicted truths -
these moments, needing you the most.
Right there,
smiling back,
in complete utterance of the words I never said.
Caressing my wounds, 
as if you saw them break, out of control.
Oils to my body, you heal me,
a gift from God, to Him be the glory -
Oh, my beloved muse.
