My Skin -By Shamaria Barron

Skin is a visual image.
A beautiful painting of mankind.
But all is different
you have yours and I have mine.

A protective coat,
Just as protective as a mother.
It can comfort you and love you
hold you like no other.

Skin is a time machine
those scars from years ago
give me flashes of my childhood,
Having fun and playing games

Durable armor in war and battle
For the tough times and when you fall
Knowing that your skin is there
Is the best feeling of all

Your skin is your best friend
Showing love without a deny
Your Skin is only here
To protect You & I.
