She peels her skin off

She peels her skin off

Pencil Drawing, used charcoal for black in the end: 

`~,,~` 

The strange taste of your body’s tears 

It fixates me, 

In tunnel vision eyes of site 

It begins, 

Again, 

To fade to black 

Save for it; 

```~~~...~~~``` 

In her disturbing Dark beauty, 

She is peeling off her skin, 

And I, 

Nyctophiliac, 

lost in mind in Juarez 

during the summer time monsoon, 

I stayed looking on 

Her, ugly is beautiful 

Her demons are depraved in a saintly way 

And I, so very far from home 

Am left to defy it, 

Humbled, and oddly enough, wanting to sacrifice, 

…And to taste from her… 

Her inner beauty decorated 

like sleek silver backs howling at the moon, 

Mesmerized, I peeled off what was left of me 

Just so that I might touch and please her 

Mesmerized, I peeled off what was left of this 

Of both society, and the skin of the man that used to be 

And the monsters in us met, 

Wondering off in the rain of the desert night 
```~~~... ... ...~~~```

And this one I have to pin.
What a beauty must be to see the very core of inner being. The truth. Ugly and beautiful at the same time. But the ultimate truth. With nowhere left to hide...
I really loved it!

  Dario, good to see you here man, very freeing it would indeed be... Liberating also, not to have to conform to standards, but being free in mind, there would be lot less turmoil in oneself... You may lose friends, but you will keep the right ones around that are truly acceptin...
