Your personality hides beyond your skin.
The senses you ignite in others sizzle.
Imagination and play are layers of protection that screens the critics into confusion.
A reckless abandonment of safety shines through.
And we only see what we want to see.
Laughter… is like a sunburn.
It peels away the mask and exposes you to the elements.
And the stinging subsides and you can start over and begin to heal for another sunrise.
