Seen

I am laid out before you

Undone by your gaze.

Your fingers linger over each scare,

Landmarks of history

Tributes to battles won

and lost.

Every inch, Every curve of me is visible to you.

With nowhere to hide

I can feel the depth of your exploration

as your eyes travel.

Every touch

sends a surge of electricity through me

I am both

exhilarated and afraid.

Frozen in this moment with you

Forever.

Latest piece, I'll be uploading early works too, so keep in mind my uploaded works for a while won't follow a progression of skill development.

to be seen is to be vulnerable. it requires trust. and people wish to be seen! but there's a needed sensitivity to touch another's scars. beautiful poem!!

frozen. while the other sees!
