I had a tatoo at the age of fifteen,
if only the outcome I could have seen,
in my parents eyes I could see their rage,
of the thought of the tatoo and that I was under age,
my best mate came with me to get it done,
he said it would make us exicting and fun,
I upset everyone close to me,
which I wish that I couldn't see,
in the chair frightened and scared I sat,
at the thought I was going to have a tat,
I wish I could re-live that day,
and change it in every possible way,
but I now have a contant reminder of the guilt and shame,
but I am the one who is to blame.

I sat in the chair for fifteen minutes going through hell, having a frog tatooed on my chest.  It shocked me to think that they let me have a tatoo 3 years under age and my friend four.  The pain of the actually tatoo was nothing compaired to the pain at home. Am I responible enough at fifteen to make the choice that will stay with me for the rest of my life?  Think twice before having a tatoo!
