I OFFER YOU

I offer you
my throat
to grasp
and kiss
and choke.

I offer you
my body
to kiss
caress
and
stroke.

I offer you
my mind
to teach
and probe
and learn from.

I offer you
my heart
to hold
and love,
not turn from.

I offer you
my love
to get you
through the
night.

I offer you
myself
to
help our love
grow right.

I offer you
my trust
with all my
heart and soul

I offer you
my life
to share
as we grow old.

        You are my partner and my brother,
        Your sister and lover,
                Dee
