Naked Love
I didn't quite understand although I thought I had a clue
I've been searching for a while but it's been a wild goose chase
I continue to worry despite saying that I have faith
It's hard to acknowledge my shortcomings with pride staring me in the face
I'm a bit anxious and overwhelmed because I believe this is my last chance
The wallflower is now asking you to dance
Pardon me, if I seem to push you away
Truthfully I am lost and a little bit afraid
Of pouring out my bare heart and soul to you
But I hope these words show the softer side of me you've been trying to speak to
There is no longer a thrill in chasing something when the closer I get to it
The further I run away
However, you continue to reach out to me without fear
While I fight to hold back the vulnerability I've withheld for years
I am ready and willing to undress to expose my unpolished self
So I am closing my eyes and extending my hands
To embrace Naked Love

Post a Commentvery nice flow of emotions.. simple and effective ..loved it
This is how I feel about the person I should be moving forward to. Yet struggling to let go of someone else.
Very beautiful piece. I love the honesty and intimacy in this piece. I love to read works of writing that have a lot of self expression and admittance (is that a word? Sorry) to the things we are less proud of about ourselves. Great work!
Beautiful...
A very intimate form of Bravery!
:}page view love to finish 2008 and wish you a happy new year
Great job and wonderful expression thanks A.M. Morgan

Well done, I like the way you portray the first scared feelings of love :) Sheri
it is hard to share your soul with someone after you have been hurt but it is always worth it, whether you experience pain or love as a result, you are still better for the experience. Touching poem.
