Years Used
Limbs connected to joints upon joints,
Scars grace the olive-toned skin,
Whether self-inflicted or accidental,
Nails are barely noticeable upon swollen digits-
Which accept various though rather extended sizes of jewelry-
To be adorned with,
Strength and an utmost confidence lie within-
Airy bones of the right,
While the left-
Is internally crippled by an often present condition,
Life line not so long as to include confidence,
Love line broken and unpleasantly bleak,
Weak is the left, though the right more often applied-
For penmanship and other various tasks,
These are my arms,
These are my hands,
They are strained though hold strength,
I am proud of the times they have been through with me.
