Matter of fact is,
I matter.
I know now,
because you told me.
Beyond a shadow of a doubt,
You spoke to me
And I caught a glimpse of your inside,
So frail yet bright,
So eager to try.
Your voice trembled,
but I listened.
You touched my heart,
and you listened.

The body can’t lie,
As our worlds collide,
My fears subside,
and I invite
your soul to settle in.
You’re welcome,
You’re home.
Only we decide
How to describe
And materialise
Our affection,
Our compassion,
Our compromise.

The language we use,
The power it holds
Can tear our despair.
We combine fire with air:
Fire under the sheets,
The lightness of trust.
Come to me closer,
Touch me anywhere
And ask me anything.
Honesty is fair,
And you deserve the best.
