I think what scares me the most, isn’t what someone will do to me, not how they’ll let me down..
It’s how much I can love. thats what scares me.
how I can bleed red iron love with every drop of my heart.
how I can swirl myself around every crevice of your soul, every dark, shadowy, untouched place inside you.
grasping it with my tender tenacious hands.
your desires no longer taken personal
just taken into me, and either embodied or set free
when you meet it shamelessly
within me.
that’s terrifying really, to become the ocean I myself drown in.
to love even when they aren’t sure of you, to love even when it feels like abuse
to meet those tainted parts of someone, with the innocent break-ability of a child.
I am breakable, I am tender, am so ripe with love that I am rotten…
that’s what scares me the most
