My lover, please forgive my tears
and pretend not to notice
my body trembling
I was not afraid to share
my physical nakedness with you
but somehow you have undressed
my soul
I was filled with confidence
as I kissed your neck
and caressed your tender breasts
but now, I am cautious, as you
kiss my soul
and caress my fragile heart.
Now, as my tears fall
from my body to yours
I watch them travel over your
smooth skin
and I wonder…
I wonder if my tears are tears of anger,
for I now realize that I have never
truly
been loved
or,
if they are tears of fear,
for I worry if I will ever be loved
again. |
