Authentically Yours

I stand naked
before your eagle eyes;
Vulnerable
Front page exposure
Featured;
in my own thin skin,
waiting for you to
cover me please.
Hoping your prying eye
won't destroy my attempts
at pleasing you.
Praying,
you will finally accept
the 'me' of me,
without further questions
or, need for in-depth answers.
As I transmit to you
will you just
receive the transmission
without feelings of defensiveness?
If I come to you naked
will I be received?

    boy, its tough to be naked in front of someone with eagle eyes...lol

    i think this piece "tells" vulnerable more than "shows" vulnerable...


    more poetry, less prose would help here i think, my opinion


    i can't thank you enough for entering this here...

    Great job again with the prompt. Very creative with the prompt. Naked does make one vulnerable.
