DNR

 
“DNR”

I want a tattoo across my chest.
DNR.
I’m old enough to see,
How things are.

No I’m not suicidal,
Just here long enough to grasp,
How many pictures can fit,
Between the clasps.

Sometimes within an album,
Other times on disc.
Sometimes in a locket,
All so easy to miss.

I’ve never wanted a lot,
I never really did.
Thought I stepped into the light,
But into the dark I slid.

I need a tattoo across my chest.
DNR.
I’m old enough to see,
How things are.
