Wear a long sleeve today. Took the first bite of a slice yesterday. Got to cover for a few more days, just until the redness goes away. Will it?  Or will my reasons shine right through me onto every one else. I won't tell my friends, even if they ask. I won't tell my mom even if she stares. I won't tell anyone. My little secret to cherish until I'm done. Hopefully I don't tear myself apart by then. Wouldn't want to leave a mark right?
