And that morning when I woke up crying
not able to say why, it could have been anything,
any of ten good reasons to just lay back and cry,
you slid over and put your whole body over mine
gently, your hand in my hair, your mouth on my ear,
wrapping silence and love and the muscles of your
thighs
all around me and let me cry let me cry
like no one ever let me before.

NIce BNM!

Thank you BNM.

"I can handle men. Never expected better
of any man anyway.

But the women,

shallow-cheeked young girls the world was made for

safe little girls who think nothing of bravado

who never got over by playing it tough.
What do they know of my fear?

What do they know of the women in my body?"

Bnm, you and debby and some others come up with the most beautiful clips. This was beautiful.

Thank you Tanya. What a lovely thing to say.
