Take your soft and loving hands and

Remove the mantle of mistrust from my shoulders.

Softly unbutton the silken gown

Of regret from my skin.

Come my love and remove the veil

Of heartache from my face and

Kiss these lips that were ordained only for you.

Confiscate the jewels of deception from

My arms neck and ears-discard my fears.

Feel the fabric of the chemise

Of my misgivings and set me free from it.

Kiss my naked shoulders honeyed with newfound faith

Liberated from doubt and the threat of neglect and obscurity.

My darling go further south and

Remove the thongs of this world's

Hatred and prejudice from my hips and slide

Them slowly down to the floor where they can be no more.

Undress me until I am stripped bare of

The world's evil and tainted essence until like

The day of my birth, I emerge beautiful untouched- unpoisoned.

Let this nude daughter of Eve stand

Before you liberated from the negative-

Pure and positive and free to melt into your loving embrace.
I can hear what you're thinking,.. All your doubts & fears,... If U look in my eye,... In time you'll find,... the reason I'm here,.. In time U may come back somday,.. To live once more-- or die once more-- In time your time,... will be no more,...
Johnny Cash (to Frank Castle/The Punisher)

  • nicely written...considering all that us gals go through in life, I think it's perfect!! :)
    If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
