To the trembling soldier,

In between silken sheets, I am your weapon

to be molded against the horrors of time and society.

Take me to your war.

Let me be your shield against the expectations, the pain, the agony.

Release your frustration in the space where our breaths linger,

bury your worries in between the folds of my skin,

burrow yourself into the world we create with our bodies.

Whether you curl into my arms as a child clings to his mother,

or you violently move my body to a flickering desperate masculinity,

use my limbs as a your blanket of defense.

Rip away these barriers and release everything to me.

Change the world in between four walls.

Forget creating love,

let’s create a ******* revolution.
