    I will break this down in stanzas and only quote what I feel necessary (:

    I must say though -- wow was this ever something different from you. A different form and free-verse, possibly prose... whatever you wanna consider it.

    1st stanza was a great opening, it was simple but well written; not one of those poems that are overdone with adjectives. Simply written and to the point. Very easy to understand. Just the kind of beginning a reader needs to get attached to the poem and want to read more. Youve definatly done that here!

    2nd stanza is brilliant. Your poem just keeps getting stronger and stronger. I really loved the idea of the stories hiding under sheets of skin.. so well said and originally written.

    3rd stanza .. beautiful? Beauty called trust. Trust is beautiful when you can share it with someone; being able to trust them and knowing they trust you the same back. Great feeling!

    4th stanza...turned a bit sad and unexpected. I thought the trust was mutual but then you said youd hope they would do the same for you...soo I get the impression it isnt? :/

    Well anyways wow what a great write. One of your best I think. Simple but very well written.. you did great! (:
