Skin to Bone

Skin to bone
peeling back
the unknown,
frail fragments
falling into black
dissolving into dust
for a life must
peel the burn away
shredding the decay
of life never living.

I am not satisfied with this poem and I am sure that will be either be added to or completely re-written. Let me know your thoughts

    I agree Brian, that was the part I didn't care that much for. Thanks for the feedback
