i wear a dress for you

by Bradd Howard

today i wear a dress for you
no longer boyishly cute,
but something else entirely.

"I'm afraid to kiss boys... stubble freaks me out."

I shave away layers of hair, skin
leaving me smooth, raw, vulnerable
transforming into what i know you desire

eagerly awaiting your kiss
batting my eyelashes
thinking girlie thoughts

I feel so naked
freshly shaved legs.

does this work?

eagerly awaiting your kiss
the hairs on my arms slowly rising.

Author's Note: yeah... this is for somebody... I think he knows who he is.

i love the repetition in the end, it works so well, kind of made my arm hair stand up... nicely done.
