You fight to keep the layers
Those pieces that protect your heart
Keep you warm
Feeling valuable, normal, real
Holding what you wanted to believe
To become, to be
But it must happen
Each button undone
Zipper yanked down
Sleeve pulled away
Buckle knocks the floor
The last thinnest sheer ripped away
For you didn’t have the courage yourself
Yet you still hold onto hope
That even this, what’s left
Just the you that was since the first
And will be till the last
Is enough
And the mind-f of it all
Is that it is, and always was
That’s the beauty of Love
And coffee
