Naked Soul

Darling, anyone can fall in love with my  
Body, smile, words and everything about me,
But can you fall in love with the tears I cry?
 
Look past just taking off my clothes and see
The insecurities that I try to hide within
My naked soul. You want to set me free,
 
But I am trying to be comfortable in my skin.
I have scars and battle wounds you do not know
About, but I am trying to not live in sin
 
Or in the past. The demons want to show
You everything and try to betray my trust,
But darling you have to be willing to throw
 
Everything away from my previous life. You must
Get to know the woman who is baring herself to
You now and who has rebuilt herself from the dust
 
Instead of the girl who was too afraid to love you.
I was too scared to want everything and anything.
My heart is never too easy to crack open. My blue
 
Sky is never simple to understand. You hold the string
Which I am terrified that you are going to let go of and
You will be searching for the next greatest thing
 
Or person while you are no longer going to stand
Guard of my latest secrets. I should have confidence
In you to not let them spill into someone else’s hand.
