Uneasy World

I want to show you how my heart explodes creating a world for us to reside.
A place where we can expose ourselves and the holes that hide underneath to roots that aren't stationary and vines that spring forth when our feelings overwhelm. 
I want you to feel my body sway when the wind travels across your lips; whispering that it's okay to be afraid of words that cause cuts and sounds that leave bruises. 
It's not a perfect world, but it's only for us.
