If I showed you the love that resides in me, would you still allow me to give it freely and be myself or would you want it all for yourself and yourself alone?
If I showed you what I truly thought about you, would you accept it and welcome it?
If I showed you how deep I can go when thinking about you, would you go to those depths together with me?
If I showed you what treasures lie inside my heart, would you leave them there or take them with you?
If I took the mask off my face and showed you the real me, would you still love the face you see? Would you still want to have me in your life? Would you?
If I showed you my scars, would you help them heal or would you make your mark and leave?
If I showed you my feelings, would you treat them kindly? Would you respect their true nature?
If I lied naked in front of you, would you touch me gently? Would you appreciate my im-perfections?
If I showed you the flames of passion breathing inside of me, would you breathe them together with me?
If I showed you the truth that stands facing you, would you open your eyes to see?..
I wish I could show you my true nature and yet feel safe in your arms…
What would happen then?
I’ll tell you what… Two worlds would become One and Love would blossom.
