The scars are me

Every line,
Every bloody sin,
Chains of memories,
Etched in bumpy skin.

Seeing the past erased,
Of battles fought, never won,
Each scar a relic,
The fading almost done.

I fear of losing proof,
Evidence of the pain I underwent,
For when they're all gone,
I'll feel in my own skin that I'm a guest.
