Hands

I love your hands

for all they do

and all they're yet to hold

for all they've learned

to write, to feel

Their adventures are untold

I love each callous 

for all it tells

of toil that you've spent

of endless hours

on things you love

your talents and intent

I love each scar

Each sun-kissed fold

That marked you in years past

the nicks, the cuts

That each have healed

But still they left their mark

I love your hands

for all they are

and all they're yet to be

they'll hold me tight

and live through fights

and they've left their scars on me

Author's Note

This needs some tweaks so please don't hesitate to make suggestions, there are a few weak lines I think

Very nice. I liked the ending, which is a closed one yet not a happy one.
Thanks for sharing :)
