You asked me
If you could hug me
You asked me
And when I tell
Others this
They laugh
They say that is weird
That is awkward
But darling you asked me
And I live in a world where women
Are not always asked
Are not always given the option
But you asked me
And in that simple sentence
In that simple moment
You gained
All of my respect
All of my trust
And you
Made me
Feel safe
