It’s nice to be able
to nakedly walk
To explore ideas
and openly talk

A chance to be honest
a chance to share
Opportunity for this
is so very rare

So often the case
this falls on deaf ears
It tends to provoke
and uncover one’s fears

People are scared
to expose their weakness
I wish for their sake
others would seek this

It is humiliating
It uncovers our flaws
But there’s humility
in sharing mine and yours

When we see we are the same
none without blemish
Animosity and ill will
will all but vanish

As like for like beings
we can come together
Forge friendships and bonds
that last forever
