Silver dreams
And chains of gold
Wrapped ’round
Waist
Wrist
Throat.
Lead me
Parade me
On bended knee
I shall serve you
Giving my all
Receiving your all
Together
We are united.
No one knows
No one understands
The dignity
The respect
The love
The push to do better
Be better
All to benefit my growth.
Without you
My life would be so bleak
I would be lost
For you bring to me
A silence in the storm
A safe haven
A singular place
For me to be me.
I love you with my entire soul.
I serve you with my entire being.
I try not to look ahead
I work hard not to digress
For a day will come
When no more will we be
And my heart breaks
For I do not know how to be…..
Without you.
