I stood alone in my disgust and disgrace
Until I met you, my friend, face to face
I removed my coverings below my waist
Showing to you my limp weakness, debased
Beaten raw and scared from self gratification
For the empty high of ejaculation
Worshiping the female body from a distance
Yet never enjoying oneness or coexistence
Removing my top I revealed to you my chest
Showing the holes in my heart never at rest
Naked completely, I stood before you broken
You embraced me with words of love unspoken
You touched my weakness and made me whole
You reached inside me and healed my soul
In a list

A wonderful way to express how our Lord heals our pain, as we stand vulnerable and naked before him. I knew this was about him, because only he can heal the soul. A woman may bring you comfort and love, but grace and mercy is not of mortals. Great, powerful poem my friend! I am glad I read this, thank you.
love ya,
Michelle

Wow
I didn't expect to read anything like this. Well you did an increadibly deep and painful poem of nakedness in which we bare so much shame but then again the last 2 lines meant something else to me because I think I know a little about you.
You touched my weakness and make me whole
You reached inside me and healed my soul
Question are you speaking of the Lord or the woman????
Gotta Lova Ya

You guessed the metaphor correctly. Besides, I have no woman, so from my point of view this couldn't be about a woman unless it was a fantasy woman. Of course the piece can be intrepreted many ways. That's the beauty of poetry. But this for this author, the "friend" is Jesus. See other comments.

Wow Wow Wow. I cannot put into words what this poem has said to me. It's utterly phenomenal. You have really created a masterpiece with this one!

this is more then what words can say, this is loving, this is just simply put a golden poem keep it flowing

A humble write of God's saving grace for all of us who need His love...Have we not all failed somewhere, and needed His love and forgiveness?
A moving write, Bob!

This is wonderful! I enjoyed this read

Oh my! This is strong! It sounds like a guilt caused from doctern and not the actual word of God.

It's a mix. What is described in sin without a doubt, but carrying shame is not good. Christ bore shame on the Cross as he hung there naked and ridiculed.

But didn't He do it to take our shame and sin away? I hate to think He died in vein.
