Heat

“You’re sssoo hot!”

Was that a compliment…or a suggestion?
Here then, is a proposition

Would you like to know what’s between my…ears?
I’ll blow you away with wit, with humor
You’ll laugh and we can have a conversation –
One so good you’ll nearly forget your name
Grind me, ride me for my opinion
I’ll give it to you with sass and honesty
I’ve never been one to fake it.

Already imagining what I’m like?
Touch me, feel the stronger stuff I’m made of
Go down the depths of resilience laced with vulnerability
Their raw intensity may just bring you to your knees
Lose yourself in the heat of compassion
Dream with me while we’re both awake
Get to know me again, and again, and again

So you really think I’m hot?

Look harder. Go deeper...Dare to come inside.
See what makes me beautiful.
