Any man can say words I long to hear
While slowly unzipping my satin dress
An audience of one as I step out naked
But not everyone believes in true love
Appreciating your soul as you bare it
Raw unapologetic absolute nakedness
To believe in love means hiding nothing
All the parts of yourself offered freely,
Two become one in a single existence.
For me love is about allowing another
To explore the dark corners of my soul
While holding their hand so delicately
Learning the exact spot to place kisses
As you memorize the way light reflects
Radiating off their bare exposed flesh
To believe in love means to crave more
Learning every single detail about them
Down to their most treasured memories
I now stand naked in front of the mirror
Seeing imperfections that you so adore
Your love taught me to believe in myself
Do you regret decisions you have made
As you followed your heart’s inner desires
Have you now become a believer of love
Not one detail about you is insignificant
And no story is retold too many times
I want to absorb every single word said
Especially the words you don’t say aloud.
Remember anyone can simply have sex
But love come to those who are believers
In a DQ parking lot lost in your embrace,
I became a believer…
