Closure

Prayed that you and I might be together.
Thought it was written in the stars and
Engraved in the skies.
That you and I could grow old together.

SKIN

I live in this skin covered with confidence and soaked in love from within.I live in this skin and these scars all over my temple are filled with memories of those childhood days and my childish ways.

I live in this skin, therefore I am this skin! It has been burnt dark by the african sun that reminds me daily of my being,who I am! acne scared face reminding me of my teenage insecuritiesnd tried to heal with chemicals created by the white man but nothing helped because I had to learn to love myself from within!

I live in this skin,this skin which is the same tone as my mothers,her beauty spreads across my face as I look into the mirror and see her in me.

This skin oooooooh I live in this skin! Its been gently touched,warmed by midnight kisses and cuddled against the skin of a dark man with beautiful black skin.A dark skinned man I thought I could call my own but clearly he instead was attracted by this skin and what lived outside it and chose not to dance to the music created by my heart!

This skin is beautiful! It may not be what the world wants it to be but it is mine and I am thankful,for I am blessed to live in this skin! It covers and protects me! It is my certified stamp of uniqueness! God designed and tailor made it to fit me n' me alone! Oh how blessed am I! Skin you are loved! Oh yes you are adorned .You stretch with me as I grow! You are my armor against the world.My 1st Home,My warmth when all seems cold! And even though you may crack and burn at times,you will forever remain my skin because I LIVE in this skin!
