My New Tattoo

It's going to hurt.
Just some, not much.
Tap tap tap, needles reap.
Hold on tight, it's just skin deep.
Hues of blues, pinks, and reds.
Just enough to turn a head.
It will become a part of me, 
To see my vision is the key.
This one is special, yes indeed.
Ideas swirl, so follow my lead.
Coverup my tired mess.
Fade the past, imprint the bliss.
Bloody, yes, I must confess.
Sit here calm and motionless.
The artist will create the piece, 
a lifelong beauty, a visual feast.
It will sting, and peel, and heal.
Convince myself, I'm made of steel.
See it now for years to come, 
I savored life, yes, it was fun. 
It hurt, it healed, for me not you.
And yes! I love my new tattoo.
