Engraved

A friend recently bought some sort of ink online that mimics tattoos.  It gives the look of a tattoo, but ultimately washes out after a few weeks.  So, apparently, it's for people who want a tattoo but can't commit.

A while ago, an article showing some an unconventional pregnancy photo shoot lead me to the instagram of a couple - two women with two sons.  One of the pictures in the account revealed a tattoo - the word "home" over her left breast.

Home is where the heart is.

Very simple.  Very nice.  Something that has grown to mean so much to me.

You once told me that you thought it was stupid to tattoo someone's name on your body.  And then you went on to tell me that despite that, you were so in love that you would do it.

Let me say this now...

After all this time, I would still do it.

Even if, for all this time, you refuse to let me in.  Even if I can never make it happen.  Even if you choose to forget.

Because you've changed my life.  Because you mean so much to me.  Because you'll always have a piece of my heart.

Because...anything to keep a piece of you with me.
