It’s only a smudge in his eyes
A smear of lips on paper from skin
When apparent, meanings give rise
For it’s a lipstick kiss on a napkin

A longing for breathtaking kisses
She sends his way to imagine
of their lips in sensual caresses
with a simple kiss on a paper napkin

The world gave me flowers
And I crushed them with my feet
The world gave me sunshine
And I hid beneath my sheets
The world gave me laughter
And I cried myself to sleep
The world gave me air
And I filled my lungs with smoke
The world gave me water
And I consumed myself with poison
The world gave me freedom
And I enslaved myself to habits
The world gave me chances
And I threw most all away
The world gave me calm
And I turned my life to chaos
The world showed me comfort
And I feared it weren’t true
The world offered me forgiveness
And I am eternally grateful for its gifts

Let her see you vulnerable,
And she will be the strength you need

Let her see your dark side,
That part of you that you have always kept hidden from her,
And she will be the light that you have been missing.

Let her see you cry,
And she will become your everlasting source of joy

Let her see you when you are broken,
And she will build you up again even better than you were

Stop being scared and let her in,
Love her better, truly...
You know she deserves no less.
