CHAPTER IX

⊶⊰ ⊱⊷

The fireplace to my winter
The arms you wrap around me tight
Warms the blackness in me that hinders
Bringing light, so don't leave my sight

The kettle to my teacup
You fill me up when nothing's left
Up until the showers of raindrop
O gentleman, my kindest theft

The solace to my hustle
The breeze you bring to my angry shore
You come by like a soothing whistle
You're no silence, but in talks I adore

The knight to this damsel
You rush in haste to aid what's broke
You hold such treasures that I dare not sell
I'll claim you mine, my gentleman oak

The fantasy to my reality
The things you do to fill my void
O gentleman, my gentleman,
You bring hope to my heart so soiled

⊶⊰ ⊱⊷
