Poetry: Naked by Liam
As I’ve stumbled forward into today
Clothed in the rags
Tags and ripped pieces of the past
It’s these sad torments
My well known companions of sorrow
I’ll slough off
I’ll now undress
I’ll now strip away
Stand naked with thee
Before my soul
Arms our stretched and cry, “Free”
I am Free
My body beautiful is a gift
From God through birth
My soul chose this place, magnificent to live
My spirit embraces these three
In this communion recognize
How much joy life has in fact given
Us to see
Through that pain
I now have learned to laugh
To be me.
