    Naked Before You
    I am a flawed woman
    Broken and mended
    time and again.
    There are monsters
    that hide
    beneath my bed;
    Crouched in closets
    lurking in my head.
    There are demons
    forever trying
    to possess
    my weary soul;
    They try their best
    to destroy me
    once I’ve rebuilt and
    again feel whole.
    There are vampires
    that court me
    in hopes of
    a drink,
    They suck at
    my life-force
    while I teeter
    on the brink.
    I am a flawed woman
    This fact
    I do not hide;
    I stand before you
    with my chin
    held high,
    And wear all
    my scars
    with pride.
