~ Naked Into Night Poem by Sonya Florentino

~ Naked Into Night

Rating: 5.0


I don't know what to wear for you tonight
Clothes strewn upon the bed
It seems I'll have to come to you
Naked instead

I expect you to be likewise so
No more masks, no more shadows
Tonight will be the final curtain call
We rise or we fall

I have nothing new to wear for you tonight
So let me come as I am
I hope you'll be as brave and naked
Like the sun

Sonya, I love how deep your thoughts can be, your words are imaginitive and comes from a beautiful place deep inside you. This poem was a little peep into a womans soul, your sensuality.10
