Armour

I’m outside your door
And the process starts,
unchaining this armour
unbridling all the parts.
I cannot stop the plates
from falling to the ground,
they’ve never left me
nor had to be found.
I’ve worn this skin
forever in a day,
and you’re the one
that makes it go away...
You’ve got every piece that I am
with nothing left to hide,
you’re keeping with me
without cruelty or pride.
It’s amazing to be here
so close to the fire,
your warmth is so beautiful
you’re everything I desire.
I need you to know this
all of me I want you to spend,
I’d leave my armour off always
for you, my lover and my friend.
