A Simple Gesture

A simple gesture.

How I hadn't thought of it before,

I don't know

But I'm glad it was you who let me see

A simple gesture

Full of selflessness

To cure my ache, 

My eternal burn.

That simple gesture

Brought me happiness,

Something I had never felt before.

I wish I could show you

How I feel,

What your gesture has brought.

The desire within me

Is burning savagely.

The time will come soon.

It will be my quest to find a way

To return this simple gesture.

It resonates within me.

It reaches my being,

My essence,

My soul.

I don't think you know the beauty of your selflessness,

Or the way it has given me meaning once again.

Darling,

Your simple gesture

Just makes me positively sure

That the only reason I'm left

Is to be here with you.
