Naked


we could be passively aggressive 
as i watch you live past me 
beyond my hopes 
cause all i knew was nothing new 
i wanted you nude 
i was there to caress lay upon your chest 
but you were unaware 
if i could carry all your insecurities on my shoulders 
i would live no longer to see 
a perfect human being 
all your apparel 
and charm 
and those 
intricate 
places 
ive missed 
to glance 
over on your 
body 
can we get naked? 
will you allow me 
to be aware. 
I said i wanna 
be naked 
with you. 
Put your faults 
aside, as we 
intertwined our legs 
cause your soul 
was heaven sent. 
my womb has been 
oppressed 
since now 
i’ve hardly had an obsession 
i’m enlightened, 
this is voodoo. 
can I hold your 
mind. 
give me some 
time 
to heal your tears. 
your embodiment 
is an enchantment. 
I’m a woman 
you’re a man 
and to be without 
your love i couldn’t 
bear, i can’t 
help to know 
your philosophy, 
maybe the words 
of your 
conscience would 
put me at ease. 
from pelvic, 
to gentallic 
malice, 
i bear, 
you bear 
we share a false 
prophecy, 
can i examine 
the features 
that carved you 
as sweet honey 
dew, shall i say 
i love you. but 
ive yet to see you 
bloom, two 
lovers, so distant 
and wild for each other
