Sometimes our bodies sin against us. They succumb to illness, they grow things that shouldn’t be there.
I am currently sporting some rather fetching bruises on my skin, due to my veins refusing to come out to play when I required medical treatment and needed to be cannulated. (I’m okay, btw, it’s only minor!)
These marks may not have been won through kinky sex, but I do find them quite beautiful and sensual in their own way. The colour against my soft, pale flesh makes me think of finger marks left by a lover. The imagery of my skin being pierced reminds me of penetration and insertion, something being introduced inside my body.
Perhaps this is a tenuous link to make, but I do find myself enjoying and admiring these marks, nonetheless.
So, I didn’t get off to a very illustrious start to February PhotoFest 2020, having missed Day 1. Oh dear…. But all hope is not lost, here on Day 2. I’m hoping I can meet the challenge!!
One word: flesh
Somehow as the bruise grows, changes hue, and fades, it is like a stain slowly being washed away. I hope all is well, sending my love! ❤

Yes I feel the same about marks and bruises. The kink ones are really special but all of them have a sensual beauty to me especially if they hurt a bit

bruises always feel a bit hopeful to me because they are predictable, we know how they change and fade, that they are only temporary. beautiful and winsome, thanks for sharing.
