With each whisper, you draw me out of my shell.
The words that lull me to let my guard down so you can reach me.
You let me know there is something you see,
The reason why you keep trying to get in.
I sting you with my words and insecurities.
You soothe me with words formed of love.
Even when I push you away, you come back and hold me.
That is exactly what I need.
