take it off

(January 1, 2005)

take it off
throw away the disguises
burn the masks

we hide our deepest longings
we bury our secret passions
we fear the consequences of honesty

the bedroom-eyed boys
and slim-waisted girls
shoot side-ways glances
yet remain silent
and remain alone

we shirk the love we crave
while the Love we need
still waits
