"subconscious love"

She refers to me as dry ice…..
A cool sight to see…still too dangerous to hold close for too long.
Always kept at an arms length due to her inclination to always do wrong.

She refers to me as her torch.....My flame a comfort for lost eyes wandering alone in darkness.
Used as a temporary tool to light her way to her next adventure .

She refers to me as her water….
Used to quench her thirst when her confidence runs dry .
A means to wash away burden from her backside.

She refers to me as her library..
She delves deep for answers on the daily picking my brain insanely.
Finding comfort in my pages because they never judge her individuality.

She refers to me as her sanctuary …
Warm surroundings always welcoming her home after a long night of mischief.
A place where she can lay her troubled forehead ….well after her welcome was worn out,
Even after her reputation is… dead.

She refers to me as her man…
A bold thought considering she never met a real on until me.
Not the first friendly victim and most defiantly not the last ,
just an empty love that stems from shallow roots of her past.
