my tattoos

Folder: 
light

you can't keep a partner for more than a couple months.
what seems like a good idea now might later seem dumb
take it from me, i have "fuck off" on my wrist
an extreme example but i miss my skin
and not getting death stares for my 666....
and my chest tattoo's a bad example to kids
i can't go to the beach
without my body screaming "fuck the cops"
do what you want. but i like your skin..
my mistakes look cool but the disguise is thin
and we're all role models, you're one of them
so don't be in a rush to fit in.
looks deceive from the outside-in.
and cool is empty.
tattoos are permanent, listen!!
you're fucking beautiful with or without them
i just regret manifesting my demons on my skin
it's a scar that doesn't fade, the itch
it's incomplete til you're covered in
darkness, call it art, it's still a sin

This is really fantastic.... but I just love these lines.... to me...it also resonates as a message against self harm 

 

"you're fucking beautiful with or without them

i just regret manifesting my demons on my skin

it's a scar that doesn't fade, the itch

I like this a fucking lot!  

I like this a fucking lot!   Cool is empty demons on skin - sin an . A real change not only embracing but also taking stock of.  The turmoil In the ink.   666 ftp... cringe. But you can always reclaim what is dark and fade it to light.  Afteralk its only Lines. They dont have to mean so much. a great perspective. Look forward to reading more! Cheers  Ss 


Don't let any one shake your dream stars from your eyes, lest your soul Come away with them! -SS
