Skin

It is early in the AM
I wake up
as I am feeling a burning sensation
all over my body
I look In the mirror
with horror, and see nobody
They said this day would come
What have I become
I am shedding my flesh
It is sliding off of me
Folding itself ever so neatly
onto the bed
My old self is dead
I take her from the bed and hang her up
Then I put on my new skin
For I am transforming
This it where it must begin
I run to the mirror
As I am clearer than ever
It is now or never
Clock strikes 4
and I am out the door
I feel it deep within my core
I look up towards the morning sky
At the mesmerizing moon
I sing a new tune
Lungs full of intoxicating air
I start Howling
Loud
I activate this new me
Let's begin
