So Many Lines

Happily Labeled, I need more skin

By Kelli Sheckler-AmsdenPublished 9 months ago 1 min read

I am the definition

Of a heart out on my sleeve

I am true loves, love letter

More than worth the read

What you sees' not all you get

Sometimes to find, you must look deeper

Beyond the chaos and regret

I am and have always been a keeper

A/N

Of course I could not choose just one, so I collaborated a few lines that I would etch into my skin. Is there one you like best?

    Love Beyond the chaos and the regret. But all the lines are great.

  • I believe you, Kelli. And I believe there is someone else who is all too painfully aware of that, too, though tragically too late.

  • I def agree with Cathy! "More than worth the read" would be something i would consider having inked on myself. Great job!

    "More than worth the read," would be a great tattoo.
