My Scars

By No Child Is Innocent Once Born •
My scars are too deep to ever heal
With pain that I refuse to reveal
All my life left alone in the dark
My scars leave the deepest mark
My scars still haunt me in the night
Lost in the dark without any light
And this life is too much of a fee
My scars left me too blinded to see
My scars are too much to bear
Back and forth here and there
The knife digs hard into my skin
My scars are proof of human sin
My scars have a story to be told
Those little secrets of time unfold
Memories awaken from the past
My scars are bloody, bleeding fast
My scars are a replacement for tears
Feelings I’ve kept for many years
That show I am not here anymore
My scars leave me lying on the floor
My scars hide my screaming inside
The burning pain that I cannot hide
Cuts and bruises do make it worse
My scars are proof that I am cursed
My scars are the anger in my face
Feeling nothing but an empty space
The pain takes over without a word
My scars are screams that are unheard
My scars portray a burning pain
A silent walk down memory lane
Where I can feel all the blood shed
My scars are proof I should be dead…
