Amy
She holds me in the palm of her hand
I lounge in her view
Her gaze upon me as I pout and preen
Wanting her to see me
Know me
Need me
I am in need of her attention
I look into her eyes to see myself
Knowing I was nothing before her
Fearing her departure
She is my reason
My world
I want to provide for her
As she provides for me
Making my movements meaningful
If only to her
She makes me more
Than I am
Every moment away from her hurts
I can feel the vacancy
Only my memory can help
But it is not the same
I need her touch
Her smile
She will never truly know her place
In my mind and heart
I try to explain
But words are useless
She is my breath
My life's blood
I will come to her
As I have a thousand times before
But this time I want her to know
To feel
How important she is
And will always be
I want her to lock me away
Safely in her heart
