It comforts me to have you so close.
You breathe with me.
 As my chest rises and falls, patient
I give your heart a beat.
Shimmering, visit this shining,
Glittering, glistening, glancing
Up at me lovingly.
Silently sparkling, smiling
Into my eyes.
Exquisite, expensive,
You brighten my day with your beauty.
You’re glamorous and gorgeous and
No eye fails to fall on you.
I know she loved you first
And you’re heavy from holding one thousand memories.
Dances, dates, dinners.
So precious and perfect,
Pressed into my palm.
A weak smile, a final urgent twinkle in her eyes,
Protect you, prize you, take pride in you.
Your dazzling diamonds kiss my throat,
Your silver arms embrace my neck.
For luck, or sheer loveliness,
I’m yours and you’re mine.
