What's that mark upon your arm?
Some ink perhaps?
Oh no, what's that!
A big blue-black bruise?
Oh my, what a bruise!
Pray, what was the cause
Or the occasion
That created such a god-awful lesion?
Intended contact?
Or mere unwitting mishap?
But wait,
Oh great mother-
Do I spy ANOTHER?
Oh quick, fetch the ice
We'll have them gone in a trice!
Now really, my dear
There is nothing to fear.
No need to gape,
No foul play, no, not rape!
Just a silly old mark,
Nothing sinister or dark,
Although, I must say
(Should I really say?)
That bruises, well they
Have some kind of sway...
And now I'm so fond
Of blemish, of blood,
I wear them with pride -
Dear, don't look so horrified!
Just why I don't know,
I don't do it for show.
It's a personal pleasure,
One could call it leisure...
Oh, leaving so soon?
How inopportune!
Let me show you the door,
But please, come once more.

Hahaha no B, it's not about hickeys!
hmm cute...hehe and to the 1st comment...i think "phase' is what describes it best :P
Really? I think its great, the words, the skill, the meaning. You keep building words into phrases that bring about pure legit awesomeness. Keep writing.
