Vulnerable

When something has truly tickled me,

I snort while laughing with no remorse.

Imagine seeing past the beauty,

And the actual reality of me is there—not forced.

Learn my fears, what makes me cringe...

What show you wanna watch on an all night binge?

I have my highs and lows like any being,

Tell me, what’s the best way to handle those lows—what are you seeing? You say I’m stunning, I’m gorgeous—tell me why.

I want the kind of love that comes with a natural high.

Pay attention, you might just see a goofball.

Or test the waters and watch me grow 7 feet tall.

Let me melt within your embrace, so I know I’m safe.

Feeling stuffed, that’s how I like it—no space.

Don‘t feel insecure next to me,

You're my reflection.

If I’m the shit, you are too—you gotta match this superior complexion! Let’s talk about our past trauma and laugh at the bullshit.

We’re healing, we’re growing...

Breathing at this moment has allowed it.

I promise to be your friend but you have to make that promise too.

No constant repetition or we can act brand new.

Chances are for the strong,

A weak one can’t handle me.

Let me write you a poem, a song,

Something handwritten beautifully.

True love is real when you believe.

The kind of race to achieve.

No one could take it, not even jealousy.

A big heart I have, yet it’s wrapped in barbed wire...

Are you ready for this everlasting fire?
