If Lily could talk- The naked baby

I am naked, languishing in my bath time
Trusting, innocent, vulnerable
So silky soft and wide eyed too
You hold me up, wetting my crown
You are my world
I trust you
You must look after me
Now and forever mum
I am naïve, exposed, simple
I am love, sweetness and affection
I am perfection
A cupid bearing delight
Will you cherish me?
Do you know the gift that I am?
But I cannot yet ask these questions of you
I simply believe your strength to be true
Utterly, completely, entirely
I am not yet capable of doubt
The world that contains the seeds of pain
The pods of mistrust, betrayal and disdain
Are still but a tiny cell within my parts
The human condition resides within me
I am the vessel delivered to earth
I am the world
I am god
And I am naked before you
