He says that he loves you,
That, he desperately needs you
And he wants to be intimate.
So you trust him,
Because you truly love him,
So you decide to open wide your gates
You give him more and more
Until he doesn’t have to knock, anymore
There is no more resistance, just open doors.
So now he’s got all he wanted
And he boasts to his friends all about it
Then leaves you and your life’s a mess.
You cry and cry and cry
And you’re wondering why
Why do you have to go through this stress?
You have many regrets
As you try hard to forget
The many times you gave him of yourself
Is this really intimacy?
Do you know what to be intimate really means?
On the other hand, is it what is taught to us by society?
To be intimate comes from the Latin word intimos
Meaning desiring to know what is on the innermost
Not just a physical connection
Based on pure infatuation
That ends up in separation and emotional devastation.
Instead, it deals with the exploration of the mind
Often left out because it is seen as a waste of time
Because it’s not properly defined
Taking it out of the context for which it was designed.
It is easier to get a fix real quick
When the party is over there is no need to commit
You are satisfied and not caring a bit,
Because, the relationship was based only on 5 minutes.
Where is the intimacy in this?
It has a spiritual factor that is often missed
Because you really want to be on that list
Not knowing you are becoming another statistic.
Love is a part of God’s character
Therefore, intimacy is something that everyone should seek after
You see without it nothing even matters,
And every relationship that you try will be a disaster.
And once people come to this recognition
That it is only by spending time in effective communication
That this will be the only solution
For loves true inspiration.
That they’ll learn what is true intimacy
And know that it isn’t the nonsense that is shown on TV.
That we often take and make a reality
But that intimacy helps, you learn to love unconditionally.
