I lay bare before you
Soul emits shine
Sliding on wheel of kismet
Dressed mannequin is my fate
In body of human
With heart you don’t see bleeding
Only a piece of meat
Roasted to perfection
Feelings hidden deep
Emotions folded
Untouched vulnerability
Chained within misconceptions
In the cage of stereotypes
Awaits its destiny
-The one to awaken the man inside
