To See Me Naked

To see me naked you must close

Your eyes, she smiled,

But that will compromise your

Real beauty with what I visualize,

Trust me, close your eyes,

She smiled again,

Give me your index finger and thumb

I will numb your preconceptions

Teach you how to see

The me that few have ever seen,

I closed my eyes, held out my hand

And she began to take me on a

Journey into sight that I swear

No eyes could ever see,

Long into night we travelled

No need for light to

See her naked beauty

Wrap its wonder round me

Like soft silken sails in flight.
