damsel

there is a specific urge

when standing beside One who towers over myself

to allow Them to shield me.

save me from dangers nonexistent in this moment,

wrap Their arms around my body and hold tight, surrounding me with Their essence.

i want to allow Them to teach me

guide me

i want to look up at Them

with eyes wide with submission

and let Them take me wherever They see fit

i want to be Your princess

i want You to look at me with fragility

to not allow even a spec of dust get too near me.

i want You to see red when i\'m in danger.

Your shoulders are my shelter

i fit between them seamlessly.

Your chest is my religion

my full faith lies on Your sternum .

there is a certain heat in my stomach

when You allow it.

allow my face to flatten against You

to feel Your heart beat against my cheek

to cry into Your shirt

tears of frailty

of dangers nonexistent in this moment.

hold me and don\'t let go

for nothing and everything can hurt me

and You alone

are my haven.
