Ferocious Fearlessness

Strip me down naked.

I want no barrier between you and I.

I want to stand as I am and have you see me for all that I am, and all that I am not.

Strip me down,

With a vigor and rage that comfort me, my new found protection is in your love,

Your fierce recognition of both the pain & beauty within my scars.

I don’t want to go slow, layer by layer,

Each piece falling with comfort and care.

I want you to want me in my most barren state, from the very beginning, not hidden behind cloaks or clothes or caution.

A ferocious tenacity of all mind, body and soul.
