soul

 
swoon then fade into the shadows
I am shy of nature but not with you

until I am

you provoke the beauty in me
you want me to be faithful and earnest in my desires

honesty blushes and blooms within
my purest hopes come forward

I worry after my intent
I don't wish to disappoint
I have in past times with peoples

bold in my endeavors I lack the intimate touch
so when you approach bearing your tenderness
I come forward in kind

with grace you embrace me
and it is for me a first time in the delicacies of soul
