Secret Garden
Let me taste your agony
allow me entrance to your
secret gardens I won't shudder
at your dark corners or turn away
from your gruesome truths,
Can you face me?
Would you taste me?
to find that I feel vulnerable
and insecure too?
I yearn to know of your intricacies
your tragedies such mysteries
let me listen to your symphonies,
I know you're more than you claim to be
like the rose that never bloomed,
Let me taste more than your flesh
allow me to see what's made you hardened,
I won't recoil at your desires
Show me your favorite realities
introduce me to your humanity.
