Authors Note- I'm having Bruce feelings today, sad Bruce feelings. This is a product of that. Enjoy. Reviews feed the starving writer.
Scars
They stain the skin
they leave a memory
for all to see.
for all to wonder
how they came to be
memory engraved in my skin
but for no one to know
the pain it causes
every day to look down and
have my heart torn apart
every time
at the sight of that
small flaw reminding
you who you are
reminding me what
I can and can't do
a past I can't escape
a memory I can't replace
a pain that won't go away
don't Look down
'cause I'll see
the flashes and the screams.
I'll feel the ghost
of the old pain
make its way across
my skin
fighting to make me remember
as I fight to forget
how it all went down
and in the end
you can never win
for there they are
for all to see
tiny flaws across my skin
the pain that lasts
the pain that never fades
the pain that just won't go away.
