If you see me naked, saiba que...

When I take off my clothes
And I stand naked in front of you
I will have gotten rid of all my disguises.
Terei deixado de lado as minhas máscaras, minhas proteções, meus disfarces.
Quando eu ficar nua
Pra você
Serei eu. Sem disfarces.
Minha verdade. Exposta.
Num corpo inteiro, trabalhado com suor
Ainda assim, com pequenas imperfeições.
Minor imperfections.
Minor. Because I have two strong legs, although sometimes I can barely stand on my two feet.
And I have two arms, occasionally unable to hold myself together.
Eyes, far-sighted for many things, shortsighted for many others. Sometimes sore from crying, sometimes closed for laughing.
Mãos. Grossas, mas carinhosas e habilidosas no trato.
A broken finger, from playing with kids.
A broken heart, from playing with men.
Well mended, though, from playing with friends.

And always as possible, a smile on my face, my most honest mask.
