Alone I stand, stark naked waiting for you to cover me
cup my open exposed breast by your hands,
cover me, my essence by yours’
Hold me by my arms, strong, make my feet hold ground
I want you to be there when I break down to pieces
which I will till you learn to pick up each one of them
and make me whole again
I break numerous times,
sometimes because you want me too,
the dark side of you wants an affirmation of my loyalty
and sometimes
because your stubborn ego wants me to beg for trivial mercies
to gather me back
Hold me while I tremble, for my life depends on your strength.
facade of being a strong woman is breaking me
derived strength does not hold me together any longer
I wait for you, like the earth for rains in the hot summer
parched, dried, dead with signs of life
negligent to the base
I wait for you to trust my obsession of being your girl
and hold me while you devour me piece by piece till, I do not exist
Let me end today for I do not want to see a sun without you
let me end today cause death alone assures me peace without you….
