Physical

You and me
This 
Us
There are so many words for it
But at the end of the day
It's you 
Pulling me tight to you
It's you
Taking me higher than ever before
It's you 
Giving me 
Everything 
I never thought I could have.

You and me
This
Us
Others might not get it
Might think you're too dark for me,
But beneath that darkness
There's such softness 
Such a kind heart
That they don't know.
You show me
Show your brother
Show your niece and nephews
Just the man you are -
The man that always makes time
The man that always has a kind word
The man that always shows up.

You and me
This 
Us
It's your hands on me
Both physically 
And emotionally
As you undo all the ways I've been loved 
Incorrectly.
It's my heart being your safe space
Somewhere you can be you
Knowing I won't run
Won't hide
But instead, 
Pull you closer.
It's both of us being scared and hurt
Knowing the world is quick to cast us aside
Finding shelter within our arms 
Within our hearts.
It's me giving you all you need
It's you giving me all I never knew I needed 
It's us making 
You and me
This 
Us
The strongest we can.
