Just this

I don’t want your clothes off

I want your guard down

I don’t want to take your body

I want to give you rest

let me be

the quiet in your storm

the hands that say

you’re safe

kiss me

if you need to

but cry if you must

I’ll kiss the tears

and not ask why

I don’t want more

than your breath on my skin

your heart

finally still

as you fall

asleep

in arms

that love you

without asking

for anything

in return
