The Tale of the Tattoo's
With every tattoo I get I can remember who I was with, what I was doing, and the reason behind it. I am about to add another piece onto my body that will place another memory forever in my mind.
-My first tattoo was my dragon. I got it on my 18th birthday. It was a gift from my friend Michelle. My mom also came along to share the day with me, and laughed at me most of the time. Four and a half hours later it was completed. Dragons are watchers. The eldest of all mythical creatures. Protectors and guardians. I chose it to watch what goes on behind me.
-Second came the black sun in the middle of my back. Cindy and I wanted to get tattooed together. She got her Ankh, I got the sun with the zodiac signs surrounding it. It was January. We decided to take the bus to Body Ritual. Our only problem was we didn't know what bus to take to get back. So we ended up chasing after buses in the snow. Every time our backs hit the seat we both winced at the same time.
-The third tattoo I got, was just to spite someone I was with. I was told that if I got tattooed again her was going to break up with me. So of course I went and got another one. The first of two gecko's on my left breast. Needless to say he stuck around for a bit longer.
-The second of the two came when Cid and I were bored one night. She wanted to get pierced, I wanted some more ink. We headed down to the shop and she got stabbed, I got inked.
-Next came my gargoyle. I have this need for balance. All of my tattoo's and piercings are perfectly balanced. This is my second watcher. Lol, no one can ever say I don't have eyes in the back of my head, because mine are on my back. Jamie was with me. I got this one done in April, right before my senior prom. Jamie also got his lip pierced that day.
-On my 19th birthday I bought myself my own present. Jack Skelington. He was done on my left leg. Jamie was also with me. He found it hilarious the faces I was making.
-The latest addition would be the fairy I have on my back. In a fit of rage I had the outline done. That was the day Jamie moved out. I was so hurt, and so mad I needed something to take it all way, and replace it. After another fight color was added. Pure unhappiness led to the finishing of it.
Now I am at my newest piece. Loneliness, anger, fear, pain, misery. This is what is being added next. Darkness will be done on my left arm. What I did, will never leave me. I done gone and fucked up the most important thing in my life. Someone's undying love. Once again I have alot inside I need to get out. Inflicting another type of pain to replace it is the safest way I know how to rid myself of it. Since I am in a dark part of my life right now. When I am happy again my right arm will be done...In light. The sun... bright colors. Laughter, love, pleasure, happiness. This will consume my right arm.
I don't remember much. I think it is amazing that I remember this much. I think it is funny when people ask me why I got this or that. I have a reason and a memory for each.
