If You Let Me In

Your lips

Penetrated my armor suit

What am I to do?

If you let me in

If you let me in

I remain silent

Wishing

Not knowing

My guard falls down

I’ve been strong for years

Solid with concrete walls

Huge doors and locks

Your lips

Penetrated my armor suit

What am I to do?

If you let me in

If you let me in

I circle your navel with my tongue

Wondering

Not feeling

My eyes look up at the darkness

It’s all I can do

Until you let the warmth come out

And I can hold you tightly

Your lips

Penetrated my armor suit

What am I to do?

If you let me in

If you let me in

I engulf your body and mind at times

Drowning

Not experiencing

My heart beats

I know I’ve been evil

But my truth keeps me alive

And your beauty makes me want to be alive

Your lips

Penetrated my armor suit

What am I to do?

If you let me in

If you let me in
