You opened me up like a soured wine bottle
Trespassing so easily
Like stepping in a puddle
Together we are a melody
But you're so far ahead
When I catch up
It's rejection that I dread
My flaws are like paper cuts
They don't sting unless found
You've uncovered them all
And now I breathe as if I'd been drowned
Most things are invisible
Like the way I shiver when you take my hand
The warm feeling I have
When you smell so very grand.
The blush I get when I catch you watching
And the taste of your lips
After no days of touching
All reason seems to have escaped me
I'm happy in my skin
You've scraped off my doubts;
How could I repay this win
Strong hands on the outsides of my neck
Eyes alight with humor
That enticing, secret smile
Below the canopy of rumors
Hold me to your chest
Tell me your deepest concerns
Give me the sole root of your problems
Simple gestures can be returned
Coiled muscles meant to tear apart
Lean and willowy
Transformed into Picasso art
You've showed me who I can really be
Without worries about paper cuts,
And here I see that I'm meant for more
To carve and paint through dust.
Supple and nimble
Your fingers are so quick
Agile and natural
Touch me after all I'm your chick
