Calloused and Shaky
Consistent and Waiting

He is reaching for me:
Through the uncertainty
I see his hands
Calloused and shaky
But consistently held out
Waiting to collide with my skin
❀
He is smiling at me:
In the darkness
I see his face and
Wonder how someone
So human and flawed
Can be so easily loved
❀
He is gazing at me:
His eyes soft and sea-like
His stare unwavering
Unfaltering, unflinching
❀
He is acting like
He loves me
I am wondering
If it is enough
