Graceful shapes, long lines
From root to reach, I stretch
Bare skinned in pose
Fully exposed
But I am looking within
I cannot see you
Or if you are looking at me
Steadily focused on drishti
Nakedness does not matter
Stripped of clothes
I am stripped of labels
That I hold so dear
I am here
Nude
As I was born
Nothing to hide
Nothing to fear
The more I practice, the more I clear
Away all that I am not
Insecurities
Associated with identity
Take away all that we wear
Dare
To confront the self
Be prepared
To comfort the self
Love the self
It's unconditional
See
Beyond the body
See
Deep within
Beyond the skin
Is a soul like mine
A descendant of the divine
A lamp that shines
Wrap me in this love
Peaceful dove
In your warm sunlight
Shining from above
Strip away sadness and guilt
Dwell within the vessel that spirit built
