This Skin

Standard

This skin.
These bones
Hold memories
I cannot recall.
Every rise,
Every fall
Are contained
Within.
Every laugh,
Every cry
As the hours
Seemed so often to crawl by.
Every birth,
Every death.
Every hand I have held.
Every sunrise I have beheld.
They
Are alive
Inside me,

Pulsing through my veins.
