My skin will never work like that again, so aware of the other person that I'm unsure where she ends and I begin. Never again. Never again will my skin be a thing that can so perfectly communicate; in losing my skin to the fire, I also lost the opportunity to make it disappear with another person. Andrew Davidson
About This Quote

This quote covers the frustration of having to deal with scars created by others. It is often difficult to recover from that which is inflicted upon you. One of the most frustrating aspects about this is that scars can be permanent and there is nothing that can be done about it. When this happens, people often feel as though they lose their ability to express themselves in any way.

Instead, they must hide all of their emotions. This quote also speaks about the loss of someone’s skin against their will. There are several details that are unique to this particular case.

First, it involves a person who loses their skin against their will. This is always an extremely sad case because the person was not aware that it was happening until it was too late. Second, the person loses his or her own skin and has no way to regain it again; they are then forced into a world where they must deal with their missing parts on a day-to-day basis.

Third, one can imagine how painful this would be for anyone who had to feel the air flow across their missing parts all day long; this would make them feel as though they were forever stuck in a state of semi-consciousness.
