you there, on the rented white horse

you  don't have to save me
just keep me company on the ledge
tell me some jokes and point out the landmarks
i don't need to be rescued,
just listen to me
when it comes to jewels and fancy things
your spending shouldn't be considered in currency,
the only spending that is requested is in terms of time
over coffee, in the bed, on the road, in our heads
no need to convince me that i am a ravishing beauty
i know that the years have rolled on by
over the curves of my body,
under the surface of my skin
all you need to do
is look in my eyes and see the one who loves you
your partner in crime, your foe, your curse
the harpy, the snot, the slob and sometimes worse
just look in my eyes, and the beauty will be reflected
into each others gaze
you shouldn't try to understand me
explain, describe or define me
in the drum roll of the day to days
i have saved you, you have saved me
in so many undesirable, indefinable,
undisclosed ways
