She has tattoos covering her body
Blanketing miles of skin
Tattoos hidden from the world
Endless swirls of words within
Words anyone ever threw at her
A porcelain doll forever embedded with a cry
A cry for help that will never come
For the tattoos are hidden to the naked eye
No one else can see the stamps of hatred
Inked permanently beneath her skin
She just wants to run and hide them away
Bury them along with her demons of sin
Yet behind the blank stares they still whisper
Ambushing her with more tattoos
Fat
Loner
******
Ugly
Worthless
She begs for it to stop before she goes insane
Clingy
******
****
Useless
Yet the words never stop inking her frame
*****
Failure
Burden
Disappointment
So to release some ink
She paints on her skin
With a paintbrush that stains red
Down her wrists
She writes some more
If only you could take back what you said
