Inspire Me

Tell me stories about your childhood

and everything that you hold close to your heart

trust me with your most haunting secret

the one that you can’t talk about even to yourself

and be patient with me

while I gather up the courage to tell you mine

kiss me on the mouth

and tell me how pretty I am

then again and again until I believe you

lay with me in these bed sheets

and caress my body with your fingertips

despite my lack of self-esteem

help me figure out the meaning

behind the wretched look in my eyes

and be my cure for happiness

make me fall in love with you

like I could never fall in love with the world

and as my pen hovers over this empty page

give me something beautiful to write about

Inspire me

a beautiful love poem inspired by need and want looking for that special person to make you whole

To tell of the things I can't talk about even to myself...that would take a very long time. Just kiss someone with love, passion, and lust and you will feel their deep dark secret wrapped up in your sighs.
