Something about you
compels me.
I want to share
my secrets with you.
I want to strip off my clothes
in bright unforgiving light,
exposing scars
and my flaws
so you can intimately
and easily know.
I want to fully spread myself open
in nearly every way
so you can see
what I have to offer
and shine light on the darkness
you’ll need to weed through.
I want to open wide
my heart
my mouth
my mind
and guide your walk through them,
let you experience them,
feel what I feel,
see through my eyes
know what I want
from your love
in my life.
I want to do this
because when you gently whisper
I Love You
into my neck
in my ear
your words landing softly
in my heart
I want to believe you because
you’ll be doing it from
a place of knowing.

You CJ, are quite the wordsmith.
Your way with words continues to impress and amaze me. This is lovely, CJ. I’m so glad you’re sharing these with us.
I am enjoying writing them so much…as you can likely tell from the content.
You are quite the wordsmith CJ. They always strike a chord with me. We have a commonality betwixt us.
Thanx for coming here and reading this today, Jeff. Thanx for your compliment, too. Yep, we DO have some commonalities between us, absolutely no doubt.
CJ,
That is a wonderful, meaningful, loving poem. Goodness you have a wonderful way with words. Be proud of your work!
