Vulnerable
I want to be raw with you - exposed.
To tear open my chest
With my bare hands
And show you all the things
My heart does that
I can't put into words,
Open up my too-thick skull
And let my brain boil over
With half-baked ideas and schemes,
Far-fetched dreams,
And yesterday's car ride soliloquies,
Spill my guts onto the carpet,
Cough up stomach butterflies,
Forget to choke back tears,
Forget to say goodbyes.
I want to open up my heart
Like I opened up my legs,
Because I want to give you
All of me,
Not just the physical entity.
For once,
I want to be
Vulnerable.
