Quiet Man
by Kate Demeree
Quiet Man
ItÂ’s the gentle hand
You place on my arm
At the slightest chance
Of slipping
That makes my heart stop
Mid-beat
The quiet voice
You use when talking to me
Makes words unimportant
The trust I view
In your eyes
Leaves me breathless
I do not know
What tomorrow
Will bring
I am happy
In this moment
The clock and world
Far away
Muted things
In the land of now
Wishing I could somehow
Keep this moment
Forever
Stay where I am
Cocooned in your arms
Wrapped around you
Drowning in your eyes
