your hands once held me like, father to new born son. with such profound delicacy,   afraid to harm. now you treat me like your art work [¡] not in that_sweet, cheesy kind of way but in that_ hate, despise at the same **** time kinda way.. These blue and purple Marks, all over my body all from you. my skin is your paper those fists became the brush you, ink my body like you own it. carve your way through as though trying to produce a statue out of me. glowing with colours i have never seen before. stop using my skin to compete with the rainbow. i am not an experiment. do not create new colours on my skin. ... fist is spray can. punch- graffiti's no place left untainted. no area unpainted.   [though] with every swing, i scream i love you. every healing scar, yells it forgives you. my skin salutes you . your masterpiece commends you. one day,  remember me as GOD'S temple again? [and] i hope you never have scars from hands that once loved you, hands that once glorified your body.  holding it high like the touch of liberty may you, never feel a physical paintbrush roughly brushing against your skin. i pray. your fists get tired of hitting and your body, tired of fighting.

skin made paper
your hands once held me like, father to new born son. with such profound delicacy,   afraid to harm. now you treat me like your art work [¡] not in that_sweet, cheesy kind of way but in that_ hate, despise at the same **** time kinda way.. These blue and purple Marks, all over my body all from you. my skin is your paper those fists became the brush you, ink my body like you own it. carve your way through as though trying to produce a statue out of me. glowing with colours i have never seen before. stop using my skin to compete with the rainbow. i am not an experiment. do not create new colours on my skin. ... fist is spray can. punch- graffiti's no place left untainted. no area unpainted.   [though] with every swing, i scream i love you. every healing scar, yells it forgives you. my skin salutes you . your masterpiece commends you. one day,  remember me as GOD'S temple again?

this is me fighting back,  with every piece of matter binding me together.
