I hate having skin A blank canvas wrapping my bones Like an artist selecting her tones It’s ready to be cut when I’m alone Drawing with crimson hues Picking each pore causing a bruise Adding some much needed blues Nails carving a well defined track Blood drying into black As my fingers finish their attack Stepping back to admire my design Letting all the colors combine Finally ready to be signed
