You undress me
In the slowest silence
With the greatest care
Your hands keep asking permission
To the skin that is to be revealed
You hear me
Not by the words that escape from my mouth
But by the pauses in between them
By the tones and the rythms
By the ones I never say
You see me
Uncertainly coming onto you
And you patiently assure me
You're not going anywhere
That it's gonna be worth the risk
And I have never loved
Or been loved by anything
This carefully
