Pull back the *****
Undo the clasps
Untie the strings
A zipper's rasp
Buttons undone
And hats pulled back
Gloves on the counter
Shoes on the rack
Socks pulled down
Shirts taken off
And underwear
Will soon be doffed
But still I'm not
Quite **** enough
For prying eyes
Are in a huff
Pull back the skin
And shave the hair
And reach your hand
Way up in there
Remove the lungs
Cut out the brain
You'll take my heart
And leave a stain
On the counter
Next to the gloves
We all strip bare
In the name of love
I hoped to make something with some sing-song rhymes, relatable, and just a touch morbid.  It's always hard when you feel you have given everything for a relationship and your partner just wants more and more.  Hope you enjoy the poem!
