Bare Naked


If I were stripped naked,
I’m no different.
I hold the same contempt.
The disappointments.
You saw me stronger than the wind.
And you. Yes you!
You saw me wither away.
You are everyone.

You are scared
that I must be beautiful inside.
The ugliness so well hidden.
Hidden beneath the velvet drapes
lies the ugliness of the world.

The clothes put me to shame
when you letch at me.
My body singes
When you try to touch.
Who do you think I am?
I’m just like you.
Ugly.

  4. I love it and hate it. I don't know how else to say it. I love how it is written, but I dislike the train of thought.
