Tattoos

by @rambleronthego

Intricately painted across your skin Don't know where to stop or to begin Beutiful designs of black on brown Feel them and trace them down I know you only here for tonight I hope u stay longer than mornings first light I want to see deeper than the masters canvas To touch, to hold, to embrace your sadness I see the loneliness caged below the beauty I wish I could be the one to set you free I saw it in your eyes when we first met When the crystal clinked and our fingers touched And later when our cloths pealed off I felt it in your kisses soft I see u shy, behind your masterpiece Of boldened colors, sheilding release Your walls come down as we unite Our limbs wrap so right The paint disappears into the moon And then there is just you I see u pure and warm and light The way I imagined you tonight Then all to soon it's over And the canvas comes back to cover The miracle I just shared As we lifted the darkness from your head Is over again as morning light comes in And I place my last kisses on your specially crafted skin.

We all hide behind something... sometimes it's really awesome and sometimes it's sad
