because we love

because we love

A Poem by Mary C

I will collect your insecurities  
place them on a window shelf
where sunlight bleaches worries
and hesitancy fade

with simple strength and feminine dagger
I'll slay your dragons
pin their wings to velvet board,
store them quietly, for calm reflection

I'll pluck your calloused defences,
wash away scarred layers
and savour the delectable inner core of you

with soft brush strokes, I'll paint my heart to your chest
I'll match you breath for breath, sigh for sigh
I'll believe in you, steady your doubts and love only you.
