Tattoo of Us
I looked into the mirror,
And began to see the needle
Commence its work,
Of patching my holes,
And etching my dreams
For you,
For us,
Onto my skin,
To be worn like invisible tattoos
That only my skin can feel
Cradling me everywhere I go,
With the artistry lullaby,
You soothe my skin into sleeping with peace,
And when I looked up,
Straight into my eyes,
I see you smiling there,
With a secret to hold me today,
As I walk away towards another day.
