Gentle Hand

Your pain could feel so good inside me
If you'd just
Let it go
I would take it all away tonight
To a place that
You'll never know
Buried within the depths of
What we could become
Never to show its head
Pleasure at the surface
If you'd only let me
Love you instead

I know how to treat
The cuts of a damaged soul
And bring it back to life
I'll handle you with care
And help you find relief
Make everything alright
Your fragile heart
Will never break
Inside my loving grasp
Healing can start
If you let me take
You inside my gentle hands

The feeling of your skin
Can reveal secrets that
You try so hard to keep
Messages your body sends
Will guide me to roots and stems
Of where your scars hide beneath
Digging deep to find your fears
And all of those repressed tears
My touch will do the work
I'll read how you feel
And wash you with purity
To cleanse you of this hurt

Hands long to undress
While lips speak with caress
To deeply touch your aching soul
Hold you tight in love's embrace
To relax your wandering mind
And help you give up control
I want to lift you up
From body to delicate mind
And consume every inch
I promise you can trust
These soft hands of mine
In this elevated state of bliss

Naked and exposed
Your pure and raw form
Awaits affection so tender
No more holding back
Come into my place of warmth
Allow your heart to enter
Let it move with me to freedom
That only sweet love
Is able to provide
In the morning you will see
How a broken heart
Can be mended and revived

Fingertip exploration
Searching for ways to set
You free of all doubt
Soothing textures throughout
To make you feel
What love is all about
Until it envelops and surrounds you
Forcing your release of pain
To be captured by my inner depths
As connected as two can be
I'll keep you close to me
With soul strength that I possess

Afterward you'll fall
Into the security of my arms
Where you can close your tired eyes
Your once restless soul
Finally at ease
Where subconscious tranquility lies

A renewed state of peace
The sweet smile on your face
Brings a warm smile to mine
As you sleep contently
I absorb detail
Of your precious frame one last time
For soon I must go
I only came here
To collect all of your pain
Now that your heart is free
And happiness is at your core
There's no reason for me to stay

Later on when you wake
When you see how you've healed
If you should forget who I am
I just hope you will remember
How strong love can feel
From the touch of a gentle hand
