Naked

I bare myself, I'm in the nude
I've stripped down naked for you
To turn me away now, would just be rude
The second you get to know my truth
Examine my flaws, under close eye
So that you will never again need to ask why
Place me under the deepest scrutiny
All the millions of pieces of me
Under this light what do you see
As you softly and slowly shame me
Naked I am, I hold no lies
You can easily see all the things I disguise
My truths are revealed, for your eyes to see
So slowly and surely you understand me
Touch me with your hands
So that you may more so understand
The me that is under this skin
Somehow touch the me within
Talk to her and you will find
the deepest part of my heart and mind
The most real and most human of myself
I offer her to help you be blessed
Graced
loved
She is the ultimate truth

I stand here naked, in the nude
hoping you can find my truth
hoping you're the one I've searched for all my life
hoping you can see me, even when you close your eyes
I bare it all in hopes of this
hoping you see more when I'm naked
