❝Stains are even worse when you're the only one who can see them.❞

ink stains lingered on his arms
sweet books, sweet words
every character had its own charms
a writer with passion, imagination wide
he held those ink stains with pride

dirt stains lingered on her arms
active spirit, active life
every mile she ran by the farms
a player with passion, burning soul
she held those dirt stains to achieve her goal

paint stains lingered on his arms
beautiful drawing, beautiful art
every colour stroke made his insides warm
a painter with passion, creativity high
he held those paint stains without a sigh

food stains lingered on her arms
delicious meals, delicious flavour
every turn of the ladle by her was firm
a chef with passion, an expert in cuisines
she held those food stains like her dreams

bloodstains lingered on his arms
destructive war, destructive lives
every shot of the gun caused him harm
a soldier with passion, nation lover
he held those bloodstains forever

invisible stains lingered on her arms
hateful comments, hateful remarks
every word made her feel like a worm
a human with passion, a huge loving heart
she held those invisible stains feeling torn apart

no visible stain can make you unclean, an invisible one surely can.
with tonnes of love,
SweetSimu.
