Statue For You

I do believe I was sent here for your comfort
Molded specifically to provide for your needs
My thorax, you see, its missing piece is your head
The heart that beats within
Beats in a pattern that soothes you
I breathe deep and slow
To synchronize it with yours
It's not Sandman that makes your eyelids heavy, you know?

My limbs can hold you
So you don't fall off

I can only rest after you fall asleep

I enjoyed the thoughts and the description in the poem. I like the calm feel of the words leading to a peaceful and beautiful ending.

A poem from a kept woman.............

So beautiful, with deserved feelings and attachment. Also love your count of words. Nicely pened dear.

So beautiful, and such a devotion to love... a surrender of letting all go of yourself for one and another, really loved this piece.

It's always interesting to read a female perspective on love. Gives me the illusion of figuring out women :) Enjoyed reading this!

Coyote with his excellent taste has got it right,this is a very good poem, a good idea written with lots of good lines, and what i like is the critical, ironical tone of the message it transports. Good work.

The sandman has always been an enigma of love. To be the thorax to someone's better half...smile..it just doesn't get much better than that.
