Braille

after all i'm still a jerk playing with matches
it's just that he's not around to play along
i'm still an asshole playing with candles
blowing out wishes blowing out dreams
just sitting here and trying to decipher
what's written in braille upon my skin

[hold on hope]


second years receive a yellow bead, which stands for the morning sky clan and means hope.

there are inexpressible layers of meaning embedded in these beads. what they represent has come to mean the world to me. they have not left my skin since the day i received them.
