![]() UnwindA Poem by MissReddo you watch me when i sleep do i seem calm and tender do you want to touch me first on my face then my thigh do you think i would wake up
when the day is done i just want to leave into night and you feel me up with your very presence i unwind in front of you i'm naked and dead before you

i wake to find you propped on your elbow i wish you needles and pins in your arm but you don't flinch and i have failed again i crawl over to you but even in clothes i want to dress again cover up my secrets as much as possible.
