Scars Hurt
They never leave
They are a marking of pain
Every time a scar shows up, a part of myself I lose
What once was a beautiful little girl is now a terrified, sad woman
As the blade hits the skin, and the blood pours out, a feeling of longing comes
Longing for someone to understand
Longing for a new start
Longing for a happy moment
Longing for peace
For the past 4 years I have been at war with myself
Fighting my thoughts
My emotions
My scars are my battle wounds
Physical scars eventually start to fade
But no one understands that my scars are not only all over my body
They are in my head
My heart
So although physical scars may heal, my mental and emotional ones may not
Everyone says its because I am a teenager
"It seems like you world is ending"
Are my emotions a lie?
I keep myself busy to ignore the pain
But it doesn't help
The pain drips into my heart
I am dumb
scar
I am ugly
scar
I am fat
scar
She glared at me
scar
He doesn't love me
scar
My parents are disappointed with me
Scar
He doesn't understand me
Scar
She doesn't understand me
Scar
I hate myself
SCAR
The ones I love most do not feel the same
SCAR
NO ONE CAN FIX ME
SCAR
I look in the mirror and all that is left is a fragile human.
