Sleeves of Skin

Long sleeves mask what my skin fails to hide
Deep internal feelings of unnatural strife
Constantly forcing my hands to abide  
To keep true to my own disturbed way of life
 
Long sleeves hide what my skin cant keep in
A strange type of love
Shrouded by sin
 
Long sleeves restrain what my skin cant withhold  
A forlorn desire  
To no longer feel cold
 
Long sleeves keep hidden what my skin loves to show
The all too formal slashes
Wrapped gently with a bow
 
Long sleeves mask when my skin fails to lie
Just how badly I wish
To simply say goodbye
