Strip Away

Tear me apart
Break me
Take me deeper
The hurt is the touch
of the Healer

Strip away the beliefs
that cover my heart
Penetrate me deep
I bleed in your arms
to find the essence of love

I am naked before you
as love is naked
I am held by your fullness in me
Stripped of beliefs

Naked and knowing
You see no flaw
In this moment uncovered
I am robed in love
Yet in the mirror of your eyes
I am lost in naked intimacy

I have believed to cover my shame
But I see in these moments
that these covers are perceptions,
this world’s way of casting blame
Your love penetrates when naked I stand
Wrapped in love
Melting into One…..
