A common scenario.

Oh you gorgeous woman
No one more dark and lovely
Than you exists for me!
Tell me your woes
Entrust them to me
Would that I could give
You every inch of me.

Oh you brilliant woman
You're so much more
Intelligent than me
And your story is so touching
And your body needs touching -
But baby, darling,  sweetheart
You're not seeing the
Most important thing
About you!
If you could only put that thought
Aside for now
And really
Think
About yourself
You would
Finally see the Truth!

I told you my truth after you
Put me on a pedestal
Where you could
Maintain the ilusion that
You know
My soul
As if that
Were even possible
And hey - ******* -
If you did know my soul
I wouldn't be
The trembling
Insecure
Electrified
Daring
Ready
And
Ravenous bundle
Of **** and ***
You see
Before you.

What is so hard to believe
About my confident statement
So often and ardently expressed?
*** is my salvation.
Got it? Good.
Now get me the **** undressed.
