you can undress me with a single glance of your eyes and i've never been more naked than when you smile at me and the lines around your eyes crinkle when you laugh and it makes me fall apart

i'm more exposed when we make eye contact than in the shower and my lips tremble at the thought of touching yours
for my hands shake when we talk and don't even get me started on when you stand so close to me i can feel your body heat radiated off of you, it makes me want to cry because you will
never be mine

i wear certain clothes because i want your eyes to scan over me and flicker to the skin you've never seen before and you do the same when i'm around i can see with clear eyes and it sucks because
it's working

this poem is titled nude like the color of my skin but it has nothing to do with skin touching skin and everything with how you can make me feel with just you being near me

it has nothing to do with being naked and everything to do with wanting you to do something as simple as hold my hand
