You read me in every language
Hands down and held tight
I wanted to be the piece to complete your puzzle
With graceful fingertips and a quick tongue to match my own
I tripped on your words to fall down into and through you
Swept up and thrown into mutual inspiration
Passion too deep to throw into a sappy chorus
Craving the depths of the other’s body and soul
I am your instrument and you inspire me to sing a song of hope
Cheap wine and romance and you and me
Fingers entwined and the sheets that follow

My honesty is pure with no limits because you will never read this
I’ve dropped the heels I used to put on for charm and power
I hung them at your door and exchanged them for soft, broken in shoes
Ones that lack elegance, but worn with the intention to stay silent while you sleep
In the morning, you could believe I was only in your dreams.
Mid-slumber, your wrap your arm around my waist and pull me closer
I feel too at home, stripped of clothes in your arms
