If I open a dream for you
will you live it or take it?
I can weave another one for you
and until then I sleep naked.
If I give my heart to you
will you warm it or break it?
I can grieve without it for you
and until then I walk naked.
If I bury my blackness for you
will you let it or wake it?
I can leave it behind and below for you
and until then will never be naked.
