Being naked is a virtue; To bare your soul to another human is a risk only the brave dare to take.

To strip down and hand your heart out, shaking and praying the other person won't allow it to... break.

Have you ever sat in front of someone, fully clothed, and never felt more naked?

A person whom knows your heart and soul... your mind, your thoughts... everything you call sacred.

A devil doesn't let its guard down. I did it just for her.

I allowed myself a moment of vulnerability and now it will never again be as it once were.

~

Every time, no matter what, I see her and I'm naked. Christ.

You look at me and see the soul I gave you—it was my loving sacrifice.

~

But as I stand naked before you, I've never been more vulnerable and aware of myself.

I realize I've grown, my skin is thicker... I guess in the nude, one really gets to know oneself.

~

I'll always be naked around you. I've realized that and come to terms with it. The biggest part of me will always be with you.

But as my eyes glaze over your body and land on your lips, I know... you stand nude before me right now, too.
