Undressed


I can't be me in this leather
bound fabric, fears together
I can't seem to iron out
this internal self doubt
So I turn and flash you
Hoping you will attach to
my nakedness my truth
my serious side my youth
I need you, untie these knots
Your eyes unwind these thoughts
But you have to like me better
underneath this cashmere sweater
So I show a little skin
two tears a little grin
praying that you'll see
how stiff wool can be
But you like my leather
my tiger prints, my feathers
You place fur over me
as my final coating
so I strut in my heels
look good in my teal
This is who you want
curly hair and pumps
I resign to the fashion
smiles and fake passion
I can't undress myself
I need your help
