My second tattoo represents a lot of things for me. My dad and I used to grow sunflowers in our backyard. Even though our house was shit, I loved looking out my window and seeing those flowers. He committed suicide when I was eight. I chose sunflowers as a tribute to him and to the fact that he was the greatest father i ever could have asked for and also to remember that there is always hope and a bright future. The butterfly represents my transition into becoming the person I am today through coming out and not being afraid to be who i am, no matter what others think. It also represents my change from my pessimistic depressing teenage years to a more optimistic and exciting young adult life. The skeleton is a representation of my body and my struggle with eating disorders and self-harm. No matter what I look like on the outside, my skeleton never changes and that has always been a beautiful reminder to myself that I’m perfect being me. It’s on my upper middle back and it was done by Newt at Love Hate Tattoo in Rochester, NY. He’s awesome. <3
