and it is,
when i am with you....
i shed all my outer coverings,
take the sledge hammer
to my walls,
drop pretence and artifice,
like beggar's rags
and stand.
my scarred and naked body,
before you.....
with beautific but battered mind intact
and heart beaten and besieged
i stand naked before you
and you......
gather me up... and love me
with your besieged and beaten heart ,
battered but beautiful mind
and scarred and naked skin
and it is when we are together....
like this
that our weary souls entwine
and provide the love
that allows us to believe
we are both human...
.... and divine.
and give strength to each
other...
