BENEATH MY SKIN

Beneath my skin is flesh and veins.

A shelter for my soul and it's dripping pain.

Shreds of my broken heart dangling somewhere.

Walls of beautiful memories paring down elsewhere.

Beneath my skin lie well kept secrets.

A den of several stinking regrets.

An abyss of what if's seducing my dreams.

While maddening demons continue to scream.

Beneath my skin storms reign.

Even when I mask up and feign.

Adorning a strained smile on a brooding face.

Just to keep their whys away from pursuing my case.

Beneath my skin my fierceness lies in wait.

Thanks for coming by.
