Branded

You came and rattled my cage It wasn’t mild nor was it rage You looked at me as if I were enough Though rough around the edges You’d call my bluff Peering into my soul Breaking chains Releasing their hold Removing each layer Gently touching , you remain unwavered Unlocking doors that were rusted Revealing yourself to be trusted Holding the keys to what you did not know You are genuine, tender, and taking it slow Releasing me from my prison Where I sat alone You offer me warmth You offer me home Loving every curve Holding my face Leaving your mark With every trace I am yours You are mine Sealing our fate Forever entwined
