Get your Choos off and then your Prada
Now peel off a layer and then another
Unveil the diaphanous
Disrobe the all-encompassing
Unmask, uncloak
No makeup, no botox, No Photoshop, no BS
Strip the charade, cut the crap
Don’t live a lie
No pretences, no plastic
No façade, no veneer
Drop your defenses
Don’t hide behind
Show me your true colours
Be un-self conscious
Who you naturally are, your WYSIWYG self
Expose what’s underneath
Shorn of all accoutrements
Bare your soul
Your atma*, the real you
Now let me look deep inside
And get my fill
* Sanskrit for soul

That was such a well written piece, along the same line as my post for sure!
The “atma” word made me laugh though 😀

Even with all that stripped away can we really see the person inside…no, I think that is the heart of the matter, no one is ever an open book for we all have a facade.

“Now let me look deep inside” I guess we hide behind all the ‘accoutrements’ because there are so few who really want that deeper look. love this poem
