I have dropped my veil. It lies in crimson folds of disguise about my feet, I wait naked of intention.
If I were to ask, Could you trace a distant hand across my cheek, Sense the fabric of fragility . I blush, Exposed in simplicity, My heart beat revealed.
“I am not all I pretend to be.”
Can you enfold me ~
If I were to ask, Would you let me nestle my sorrow Against your strength. Allow me to be weak within your embrace. I need The promise to weep.
“Your hand trembles, just as mine.”
Can you find my lips ~
Breathe in me
Breathe in me
Breathe in me. . . .
