i have scars on my body

from using myself

abusing myself

in sickness and in health

i have bruises on my body

which go away with time but remain in my mind forever

as a constant reminder of the last man i loved

loathed

left

i have the word 'truth' on my arm

because there is no room for honesty when you're a liar

i have a tattoo on the back of my neck which i cannot see

but i can feel

but i can feel

i can

i have a tattoo on my stomach which in italian means 'the sweet life'

i have the word 'love' in flames surrounded by stars on my right wrist

because these five fingers go straight into the soul of man

i have the word 'hate' on my left wrist because the left hand is the hand

of hate

and it was with this hand that cain knifed his brother

i'm right handed

maybe that's my problem

my ruin
