Intravenous

I ask you to reveal my beauty.
Where does it lie
Inside this battered body?
I search but I cannot see it
Even when I close my eyes.

When I sleep I dream of you
And you watch me -
The flicker of my eyelids,
The gentle rise and fall of me.

I breathe in the words you whisper,
Steady and sure through my heart
You seep
I seek inside -
I am full of love.
