Scars

I feel it once again
It scares me
Knowing that I'm not strong enough
After being taken down so many times
I don't have the strength to fight it again

The feeling takes over
Sweat and tears cover my face for no particular reason
Skin cold as ice
Body starts to shake
I can't handle it anymore

Small shaking hands find a relief
Head screams no
Heart shouts yes
My hands grasp the one thing that'll ever help me
It's my only escape from this empty Hell I live in

One last year runs down my cheek
All my problems are gone in that moment
Just by a flick of the wrist it's all gone
Watching the color drain out
Releasing everything I've held in

In that moment I was addicted
High on the feeling
How good it felt to release it all
Everything bad and terrible was gone
Only leaving a scar to remember it all by
