They start as one,
convincing yourself after this I'm done.
As your life journey of experiences start,
your body evolves into a canvas of art.
The symbolism and meaning you keep close to your heart,
this permanent decision inspires individualism which sets you apart.
Elegance & simplicity is what you strive for,
the ink opening up a potential judgmental door.
The sacrifice of revealing your story on open skin,
throws you into a category of people who sin.
Living for the idea of what society thinks is right,
dissolves uniqueness and feeds that inner fight.
Just because I have ink,
don't mistake me for a person who doesn't think.
