I got naked for you
But not in the typical way
My clothes hid my shame
While I waited at the corner of
Child-like and 25-years-old
You stripped me clean
Seeing each crevice and crack
All my dirty, little secrets
Each emotion a freckle
Each memory a scar
You touched my naked body
To make me whole
But each touch left a burn
On my cold, clammy skin
As you grazed each curve
My innocence withered
As I wasted away
You walked away
Leaving me naked, shaking
Cold and clammy
Another freckle
Another scar
Burns in the shape
Of your too-strong hands
I got naked for you
So that I could heal
But you took my innocence and left me in pieces
