Skin.

Today will not end sadly again,

I seem to have grown a new layer of skin,

woven thicker and stronger,

with a shelf-life that’s longer,

and a few newly formed opinions;

This world will continue to spin,

people still consider themselves as Human,

the truth shines much brighter,

from the wounds of a fighter,

when nobody’s tending to them.

    Vulnerability sacrificed for a sense of self-protection.
    Unfortunately, there are things we need to do to make sure that we feel safe, secure and important.
