allow me
to be closer to you
than anyone ever has

give me your permission
to be the one to love
your diminutive flaws

i promise

that if you let
me be the one

to lie
bare
beneath the covers
with you
that i will
mend
every segment
of your fragile heart

i promise

to never stop hunting
for the minuscule pieces
that fell under the surface


i promise

that no matter how far
you push me
to the edge
i'll hold on

i'm nowhere near
as strong
as you are, my love

but i promise
to be the arms
that will always be
open
to you
