Strip Me Bare

strip me bare
of all the things
that stand between

me and myself!
of all the fears
that stand between

me and you!
of the weight of all
that i have done,

replace it with the freedom
of all that i've given....
take away the wants

that have impeded my desire...
give me back the purity
that doesnt have to be defined....

allow me questions
that need not be answered....
allow me to walk

following my own footsteps....
strip me bare...
so i can find my way home!
