Divine Descent

Can't help being human.....

For her

how hard it is to surrender
to find the strength to be weak
to throw myself before you
vulnerable, disarmed

to let your every kiss
come as a lightning
every embrace like a fire
burn away
the walls I build around me
because I'm so afraid of you
who are so obscure
and irresistible

come, with whole of your fullness
with your terrible intensity
and tear away my masks
because there is nothing
I don't want to give to you

for I am tired of fighting
I am tired of being afraid
come, tear me open
I surrender
