Naked

He
Curled up with bunnie
He
Still has his shirt on
I never took it off
He
Is sleeping
In my bed
I am naked

Winter roars outside
Wind dies to rock the trailer
I sit warm inside
In my room
He is snoring
I am naked

I type
Harmony with the night
Rythm of my neuroses
He is sleeping
In my bed
I am naked

I do not mind
If
Bunnie cuddles up with him
Perhaps if he had bunnie
The terrors would not come
In the night
Wind roars
I am naked

Addiction
Wind screaming
I am naked

Out behind the wind
Beyond the noise of mighty 101
Long before the white man
I am naked

I am what you would have me be
A lover if you have passion
A friend if you need to laugh
Someone to hold on to
I am naked

Before you I stand revealed
No refuge in which I might hide
No sanction
No remorse
Give me your hunger
I am naked

He is quiet now
The wind is not so loud
Sound of my keyboard
I am naked

Forces of the night
Move toward the morning
Dawn always arrives
Long before the white man
I am naked
