Skin Deep

Working through some stuff again...

II

And when there is

nothing

else

left to do

 

you whisper

 

through the gaps of your soul,

mouthing lyrics that mean

everything you never thought

you

should say.

 

 

I

All the splinters

digging,

stabbing past the epidermis

can't tell you who you are

 

so you look deeper

 

but there is

nothing

there to see -

somewhere along the way

your subcutaneous layer

burned away.

I feeling like that ...so much happening so much to balance and learn...karma is just learning...
