Skin Writing

your skin was a writer's trail

scrawled in ink was a fairy tale

except there were no happy endings

only an incessant stream of emotional spending

drawn in red, dried up blue

your wrists were bruised by pity and pain

when it was cold outside, you wrote again

only to cover it all up, shamefully so

no prying eyes discovered your woes

the ink stained thick, going deep

all of your pens thrown in a heap
