I Will Not Carve You In Stone

/ Kait King

I will not carve you in stone

I trace the shape of you

with my eyes

with my hands

with my lips and tongue

I trace the shape of you

in my mind

in my heart

in my very being I let you sit

I trace the shape of you but

will not carve you in stone

The shape of you moves

the shape of you changes so

I will not carve you in stone

  11. Oh this is just way too amazing. It’s kind of like saying… I will not allow myself to have a specific idea of who you are, because even when you aren’t YOU on any given day, I will still accept you.

    It can also be seen as: age and the changes that the outer shell goes through, will not determine the persons overall attraction to this individual

    It’s the freedom to allow a person to just be, without the interruption of our expectations, desire or preference.

    It’s acceptance in all its glory…
