Lily Tu

 
sweet and sexy man
you weren't expected but you are
a star rising in my skies
romancing the honesty
giggly girl, you have a way about you
your truths about me make me laugh
teaching me self acception

brewing something beautiful inside me
stripping my linger until I'm bare and blushing
covering myself with a shy smile
your knowledge of things surpasses mine

never one to second guess you
my hope is you will love me still
as you penetrate my soul
you're in murky waters now

my dark abyss nobody has ever seen
you conjure my monsters
with respect to their honor
they know you and respond accordingly
it is my desire you should know them

arouse the wildflowers
they line up to meet you
it's a cult garden
the only ones I ever got to grow

their petals are scribed
my diary kept
while the sacred pools swirl

focusing on your love for me
has kept my mind on the garden dream
guarding the gates
something natural and unnatural

a sacrifice to you
perfectly scribed tomes
in a design to keep me chaste
poetry is written in metaphor
a sing-song language
we write with a feeling that connects

each of us are gifted
in our own right
touch my blush
and read my parables
take this broken body
as a sacrifice to you

sorrow flavors me beautifully
tears flow and I feel you deep
down in the depths where I go

when things in this world get too shiny
and human kindness comes with emotional price tags
that just cost too much
for one like me
