Skin

by undying blusher   Aug 30, 2005


I only wish
I could shed this unsightly skin
And once again begin
I would go about it differently
I know that, undoubtedly.
Alas, I am not a snake
This skin, I am stuck with for the rest of my life
(However long that is)
I am not a beautiful butterfly-to-be
I have yet to find a pair of wings that fit me (comfortably)
I am still looking
Thank you,
However, I cannot borrow yours like a pair of jeans
Seeing as neither would ever fit me.

    Be yourself, its the most you can do, and you will be so much better as yourself, I am sure many of us wish we could shed our skin like the snake alas we are all stuck as ourselves and I am sure no one is completely happy about it, however, make the most of being yourself, you are your own person, special in different ways to those you envy, you have talent, this was another good flowing and well structured poem, well done to you

    take care
