Surrender

I surrender to his will at night,
He consoles me as he holds me.
He says it'll be alright,
That I'm dreaming, just dreaming.

Slender fingers in my hair,
Pressing, caressing.
Words like satin in my ear,
Unstressing, suppressing.

I'm grateful he understands me,
When no one else does
as he does.
I say this, and he kisses me,
Says he needs me,
he loves me.
