Analysis of Favour



Once I knew she waited
For no reason fair
For me she said. Mmm.....
It was not awkward though.

We talked helped smiled
Bound to each other
With eyes melting at times
What for ? asked my heart.

AT last she opened
A strange voice queer
I need to feel the warmth
Of tiny lips on my breast.

I was caretaker for
My two gems 'n' their mom
But I couldn't close myself
Against her wish deep.
