SOUL BARE

Folder: 
JOURNAL #6

all my senses seem to fade to unprotected black

whenever you are near it is more than obvious what it

is I seem to lack

a deep sense of inner beauty that should shine from

within all the way through out

but that is not so for when you approach with

unexplainable shyness and inferiority I am forced to

bout

my hard won self confidence falls to the ground and

shatters at my feet in utter despair

my wit and sense of humor then follow by melting

in virtual thin air

leaving me standing before you terrified and completely

Soul Bare

showing you what no one else has ever before seen

my unadorned trembling true self so incongruent to my

public camouflage and quite rare..............
