she would live in your shadow
let it shield her from the sun’s glaring light.
let it wrap her in the darkness of the night
as she lies in the hollow of your shoulder
wanting nothing more than you to hold her
as she lives in your shadow.

she would bask in your brilliance.
let her warmth come from the fire in your eyes.
let the light of your love guide her, mesmerized
as she moves to the heat you generate
wanting only the touch that you can create
as she basks in your brilliance.
