Prelude To: "A Letter FROM Women"

Wish I could open up your mind and study your desires

Assuringly these would surprise me conflicting with initial thoughts and assumptions

Can I insure that my search is relevant?

Basic elements that let me in

Entrance granted

Into guarded gates with security codes changed weekly

Freely by you

You are more than what you seem to be

More than what I hoped for

in that dream last night where we discussed contractual conceptions on how to take your emotions, fears and pride

To mold them into something I can understand

Where you don't hide behind crafted smiles

Enjoy what you're reading?

And your eyes really do let me see into your soul

Write me a letter

Where you detail exactly what you hope for when your heart's door is open

Recount your wants verbatim

Never erasing

But if so, allow me to know the daily changes

Do more than tell me

Let me feel what you want

So I can be a perfect judge of all your actions

And mine will receive justified reactions from you

The ones you wanted me to produce

Write a letter

I'll read yours first

Never peer editing

Because you are who you are

A woman

No letters to women except these formed in earnest:

"Tell me how to treat you"
