Skin


We liked to write stories on our skin. It helped the time pass in the winter. We only hoped they would stay hidden but we sinned and sinned and sinned. Soon we gave up trying to cover-up. This was when we asked ourselves if it was time to grow up. To take a deep breath to allow ourselves to grow-up.
