Drape me

In jewels
With all your gentle tools

Drape me

With your eyes
Without blinding me

Drape me

In words
Without them hurting me

Drape me

With affection
Without it spoiling my moods

Drape me

With attention
With borders that can be crossed

Drape me

With love
And I will give it back to you

Drape me

With songs
Without being out of tune

Drape me

With heat
Without explosions

Drape me

With care
Without a strangle

Drape me

With kisses
Without hinges

Drape me

With the world’s beauty
Without its sickness and addiction

Drape me

With your mind
Without doing it all the time

Drape me

Without an end
As I want to walk further

Drape me

With promises
But spare me when they are broken

Drape me

With your sex and lust
But spare me the hate when I have had enough
And I am through with you
