Naked

You may love the way I feel against your hands,
But I am so much more than just a naked body.
I may come across as confident,
But really you have just mispronounced self conscious.
I get jealous and territorial,
But accept me.
I come across as sassy, occasionally mean,
But I have one of the biggest hearts you will ever meet.
And underneath this small frame of mine
is a crazy woman waiting to be unleashed.
You may see bits and pieces of her from time to time,
Accept her too.
Underneath this bright smile
is a lonely girl who longs for affection.
Excuse me if i'm sometimes a little too clingy for your liking.
But I do demand your attention.
Deal with with it.
I might cry over something that doesn't seem so big, or get pissed over things not so significant,
But take these mood swings and learn how to make me feel alright.
If you don't respond or call me back
I'll probably think you're with some other girl,
I have trust issues you wouldn't believe..
Prove me wrong and adore me anyway.
Behind this beauty you see,
Are many things I don't like about myself.
Can you like those parts even more than the parts of me we agree upon?
I have walls
that may take you a long time to break down,
Are you patient enough to wait?
Can I tell you my secrets without feeling embarrassed or judged?
May I show you the deepest parts of me and get the same in return?
You might be able to tell me what I look like with my clothes off,
But can you describe my mind in as great of detail?
My heart?
My hopes and dreams,
My biggest pet peeves?
Stripped bare,
Beyond what my body can provide for you,
Can you love me naked?
