Poem #4 - Burned

Burned

Laying out beneath the sun.
Wishing only to be tan.
Rub the lotion on my skin
Then wait for it to sink in.
Doing nothing
Super bored!
How long do I need to lay here?

When will it start to show?
Well maybe if I just relax
And maybe even fall asleep.
Hours past and I'm unaware
Of how red I have become!
It's only one side of me
And oh, the burn hurts so bad.
As tan as I wanted to become,
It turned around to bite me in the butt.
