See these scars
These nicks
These punctures
Mementos
Reminders
Souvenirs of junctures
One for a love lost
Two for no winner
Three as the cost
Of loving a sinner
Each is a memory
A bolt of pain
A desperate attempt
To stitch me up again
You can try and try
But I'll still come undone
The fraying bandages are just a symptom
Of this rat race we run.
