Tattoo Tour

Beautiful burns

The dozing dragon on my bicep

Still sleeping yet to wake

The dagger on my pointer finger

Targeted toward my own ego

The words “wait for me” on my eyelids

A silent message and tacit agreement

The phrase “I love you” behind my ears

Tucked away behind a strand of hair

The flames on my feet

Paining me to walk faster through life

The rose climbing up my back

Thorns reminding me that beauty is pain and there is beauty in pain
