Sleeping Naked

Slowly peeling away my
faded Levis 501's
and silk string from
between my buns
slipping from my old
flannel shirt
for this day
I can forget the hurt

and slide in under
neath the sheets
while the world out
side depletes
hiding away my fears
and defeats
my naked heart next
to yours beats

making me free today
no thoughts of tomorrow
behind my eyes
I see no sorrow
and fading off into
a pleasure keeping
me naked
you naked
only sleeping.
