Peel back my skin

Disect me like a butterfly

Read me like a book

Take my final sting like i am a bee

As i gasp with my final breath i took

.

Passionate as the week is long

To never quit until the task is done

To improve with every mistake I make

To collapse from when all is won

.

To inhale madness like it’s oxygen

Filling entirely my lungs

To bounce off the walls 

Just to exercise some fun

.

You think you know me now

From observing afar

Peel back my skin look inside

And reopen my scar!

.

My new book “Rhyming poetry to change your day” is now available in paperback

  1. You think you know me now

    From observing afar

    Peel back my skin look inside
