RAW DEVOTION
<p><br/></p><p>You are the earthquake in my steady world,</p><p>the tremor that shakes loose everything I thought I knew</p><p>about wanting, about needing,</p><p>about the way skin can speak without words.</p><p><br/></p><p>I watch you move through morning light</p><p>and wonder how you carry such gravity</p><p>in the curve of your shoulders,</p><p>how you make ordinary moments feel</p><p>like secrets whispered against my neck.</p><p><br/></p><p>Your hands, God, your hands</p><p>they know the geography of my hunger,</p><p>map territories I didn't know existed,</p><p>leave me breathless and rebuilt</p><p>every single time.</p><p><br/></p><p>I love the way you look at me</p><p>like I'm both sanctuary and storm,</p><p>like you're memorizing the exact shade</p><p>of my need for you,</p><p>the precise angle of my surrender.</p><p><br/></p><p>You are thunder rolling through my chest,</p><p>lightning splitting me open,</p><p>revealing chambers of myself</p><p>I kept locked away until you.</p><p><br/></p><p>When you laugh, deep and unguarded,</p><p>I want to crawl inside that sound,</p><p>live there in the space between</p><p>your joy and mine colliding.</p><p><br/></p><p>Your mouth is my undoing,</p><p>the way it forms my name</p><p>like a prayer, like a promise,</p><p>like something sacred and profane</p><p>all at once.</p><p><br/></p><p>I crave the weight of you,</p><p>not just your body pressed to mine</p><p>but the beautiful burden</p><p>of being completely seen,</p><p>completely wanted.</p><p><br/></p><p>You make me bold in ways</p><p>that terrify and thrill me,</p><p>strip away my careful composure</p><p>until I'm nothing but raw nerve</p><p>and honest longing.</p><p><br/></p><p>I want to tell you things</p><p>I've never said out loud:</p><p>how you've ruined me</p><p>for anyone else's touch,</p><p>how I ache for you</p><p>even when you're here.</p><p><br/></p><p>The way you say my name</p><p>in the dark moments before sleep</p><p>sounds like coming home,</p><p>like finding the missing piece</p><p>of my own soul.</p><p><br/></p><p>You are my favorite contradiction, your</p><p>gentle hands that leave me wrecked,</p><p>tender words that set me on fire,</p><p>soft kisses that feel like claiming.</p><p><br/></p><p>I love how you look after loving,</p><p>disheveled and glowing,</p><p>like some ancient god</p><p>who's just remembered</p><p>what it means to be human.</p><p><br/></p><p>Your desire for me</p><p>is the most intoxicating thing</p><p>I've ever tasted,</p><p>better than wine,</p><p>stronger than any drug.</p><p><br/></p><p>I want to worship at the altar</p><p>of your collarbones,</p><p>write poems on your skin</p><p>with my tongue,</p><p>learn the language of your sighs.</p><p><br/></p><p>You've taught me that vulnerability</p><p>isn't weakness, it's courage,</p><p>the bravest thing we can do</p><p>is let ourselves be fully known,</p><p>fully felt, fully alive.</p><p><br/></p><p>In your arms, I am fearless,</p><p>I am fire, I am flood,</p><p>I am every beautiful disaster</p><p>I was too afraid to be</p><p>before you loved me whole.</p>
