Buried Warmth

Can you be warm and cuddly,
I am frozen stiff and cold,
My bones have chilled deep inside,
They are so formal and so are these,
Those there are just about business,
And here these guys are growing professionals,
You have to have the symbols of well being,
Wear skins and skins and skins,
That hides your inner health,
Can you please hug me hard,
Caress my cheeks, lips free,
I will really appreciate,
If you throw your cloak down,
And face me with what you are,
And what I am,
And not for what I do and what I have.
