To Love Me And To Know Me

I'm earthy
Brown skin
Like the dirt we grew up in. Warm and dark
Like the kind
Our roots
Are still covered in.

Beautiful things grow from inside of me.
Did you know I smell like the ocean on a summer day? 
That my thoughts go deep
and come in waves so big
they could drown this coastal town.

Did you know my skin tastes like warm honey in the evening?

And Love,
If you are going to touch me, 
Go deeper than my skin

And reach deep within
Wrap your hand, tight around my heart. 
And pray that you don't burn
and fall apart.
Because love inside...

I Am The Sun
