Take it Off

Take it Off

A Poem by Taji Herbert
"

2014

"

Underneath your skin is that of someone else

You wear one face in front of me

But as soon as I am gone

You step out of that skin and become another

 

Peel off the mask

I need to see the truth

Unbutton the façade

So it will reveal the real you

 

Strip off the paint that covers your natural beauty

Demolish the walls to clear your path to truth

Pull down and step out of anything holding you back

 

You don’t have to be who you aren’t

Wear your own skin with pride

It fits perfectly
