Poem Artwork

You have seen me-

Not the me that I

Show to everyone-

Not the storefront dressing

That conforms to what

Is expected and accepted

In a world that could care less,

But you have seen me

Without my game face-

Without my pretenses-

Without my armor

That protects the most

Vulnerable part of me,

Where my emotions

Are hidden securely away

Behind my self-made fortress.

 

I stood there naked

Before your eyes

And let you see me

For who I really am,

I let you see inside my heart

And touch my soul,

As you touched me

The emotions poured

From my eyes,

Because I could no longer

Keep them locked inside,

And with the release

Of these emotions I knew

That I had found love,

And you would protect them

Better than I ever could.

I think a vulnerable man always touches the Heart of a woman…
This is so honest, and probably what we all want…to be free
from what others expect of us, and just be cared for as ourselves…
Absolutely beautiful…!
