He Loved Me Down To My Naked Soul

by Erica Hughes - Libra

When no one else wanted me,
and my world was empty and cold,
he warmed me spiritually,
down to my naked soul.

He stared me into the blackness of my eyes,
then laughed into my thighs, 
I couldn't tell him lies,
Or sing him lullabyes,
He made me young, when I felt so old...
He loved me down, to my naked soul.

When I ran away,
because I feared this man,
he placed his heart,
in my tightly closed hands,
he mocked me gingerly,
touched me tenderly,
until I relented,
repented, intimately,
He loved me gently,
and gave his flesh to my brittle bones,
he loved me down, to my naked soul.

With the fire of his heart,
he burned away my insolence,
he was a spark unto my coal,
the intensity of heat, wittled me into fiery embers,
he loved me down... to my naked soul.
