Our region has been ravaged by floods and landslides in recent years. The rampant deforestation has left the surrounding landscape scarred and vulnerable. I've felt this vulnerability on the skin
ON MY SKIN.
I feel
You on my skin
Your near very near
Im paralyzed thrilled to
Numbness , chilled , prickled warm .
You're beautiful, so perfect more perfect than perfection itself,
Can that be so , I ask myself.
You are youth eternally disguised with wisdom on your side .
On My skin
you’ve left a chill , heat , and the warmth of a breeze .
You’ve brushed my hair, filled my eyes, massaged my feet . We laid together , laughed and cried .
We’ve been through thick and thin hardships, sacrifices, built a kingdom and worn the crown.
You’ve whispered sweet words ruffled my stability, comforted me and became my confessionary
I’ve worshiped you .
I never meant to hurt your feelings or trespass .
I felt your anger and it’s scary .
Lay down your sword , you're torn and hurt .
Those wounds will never heal, they will always be there to remind us .
Lie with me side by side with our wounds, our skin is tired and hurt.
don’t go , just hold me
I love you
I felt it on my skin
