each other

I let you in
gave away my secrets
bared my soul
and you did not run or shun me away
embraced my vulnerable state of being and called it "beautiful."
and loved all the parts of me, even that which i myself struggled to behold
stripped the layers back,
explored each part of me
and loved me more
and you gave yourself to me
an open book to be read and written upon
and let me find safe haven in your caress
I let you in
pulled down the walls
and scraped away the paint and plaster and dust
left nothing hidden
and you claimed me as your own
kissed away my troubled mind
and settled in with a calm and ease and joy
a complete state of mind and being, from two forms, now one
hearts from two origins now beating in unison
and you gave yourself to me 
losing yourself in that place where you and i reside
exquisitely woven together as if from the heavens
