Naked


Let's get naked.
I will show you mine and you show me yours

Strip myself to the bones and you will see
All the flaws and problems of my being.

The errors that go beyond the skin
The glitches in my system will you see.
Some of this will shock you
Some will repe you
I am sure you will feel pain.
I promise that you will be disappointed.
I assure you that my scars are not pretty.
For my outer layer is as pretty as a cake
And my insides as rotten as rancid meat.

I am not as pretty outside as I am inside.
But who is?
My soul may stink like a four day old corpse.

Let's get naked
And see who runs away first.
