Naked

What's really going to make you happy?

A spoken word/poem about self respect Titled "Spoken Through the Trees" by Erin Armstrong.

A body is a thing of beauty. Don't waste it.

Lyrics:
It starts slowly,
Like leaves on a cold autumn day,
layer by layer,
falling.
Raindrops fall to the floor and stagnate.
Time to take out the trash.

I'm thinking the reflection is screaming back at you.

It's okay
Just this once
He loves me... right?

The brilliant schemes of Autumn,
colors dancing their way,
Alone.
Gravity is all they have and it is getting harder and harder to breathe.
Winter is coming.

Barren.
Self respect like leaves has turned to dust.
Beneath these falling stars,
skies turn, cities burn,
and in the wake of self destruction you've left...
Something was lost.

It was your reason,
Your joys,
Your love,
Your humanity,
Your self respect.

Put a shirt on for Christ sake.
You're embarrassing yourself.

gee, so many terrible comments on this video... this is why I would makecomments on my video closed, but then you woould also miss out on all the nice comments...

[grishno]

@YukiNekoPrincess The hater comments used to really bother me back when I first started making videos but at some point I just had to learn to let it roll off me. If I hadn't learned how to do that I would have stopped making videos years ago.

Only problem with that plan is that I wouldn't let anyone who butchered my pronouns in such a manner withing 10 yards of my vagina.

@Ln192 I'm happy to keep rebutting your prejudices with my apparently superior logic ad nauseum, if you like, but we are quickly going to reach a cycle of redundancy and i've got better things to do than try and impress some random asshole on the internet.

[Ln192]

@thegrandpubaa oh man, youre even dumber than i thought.

[thegrandpubaa]

@Ln192 That troll-esque prejudiced assumptions are best met with childish inanity? Yep. You got me there.

[Ln192]

@thegrandpubaa Thanks for proving my point.

[thegrandpubaa]

@Ln192 Na-na-na boo-boo, stick your head in doo-doo!

[Ln192]

Quite poignant. The alluring visual tease complimented the lyrics nicely. You've got a knack for style and storytelling. I especially liked how you managed to amp up the emotions of the poem with your eyes: the way you would occasionally glance at the camera, allowing the moment to linger before moving to the next tantalizing layer.

that was pretty good. happiness is what you make it. if a bum can be happy with his pet dog, then its only in the eye of the beholder will it be found. take care slim

You look like a very pretty boy. Sorry, I just cannot fully "process" you as a woman. But don't worry my dear, you are free to act as you please and even more free to follow your heart in deciding who you are to love.
