The world doesn’t seem any closer
Seemingly father, distant, darker
With my thoughts followed around
The back of my room’s décor
The back of the heads that cry

The points of youth where
Naivety was where the mornings rode
With the high scale breaths
Of the pancakes wet chests,

With the mind still
Sitting to a world with reason,
With a joy that numbed me
But secured me, assured me
There was a peace among cemeteries,
A peace with the crows that hovered,

But as I sit, more manipulated,
The world more frozen, my hands creased older,
The peace now brides to shadows of suicides,
The graves seemingly grayer,
Where past generations of mass murders
Now stare louder, stare inside me,
Walk beside me, so now, I look outside me.

Tomer,

There is a lot of good thinking in this poem.  Stay naked, there is nothing wrong with naked.
