so i can't do much
about your tired feet
or sore soul
i can't do much for
your hurting back
or your tired heart
not from over here it seems
so i can't do much for
your bag that is too heavy
or a rainy day without an umbrella
i really can't help much with
making you a lunch on a busy morning
or helping you get ready for your day
not from over here it seems
and i really can't do much
when you're without a proper meal
or a more reliable ride to the store
and i can't do much
to help you get to sleep
or to feel more comfortable
no, not from over here.
but love,
when you are home
i will hold you and take care of you
kiss you soft and remind you to your face
all these things i failed so miserably to prove over the phone
i will bathe you and love you
cook for you and shop for you
make love to you sweetly
foot massage your perfect tiny feet
caress and nurture your entire body
hold you close when your too cold
do all the things
i was made to do.
all the things i want to do everyday for you.
