        (I'm writing this off the top of my head, soooo, here goes... It's about my best friend....)

        My Scars Exposed

        Everyone told you to stay away,

        They told me the same about you.        

        But when you exposed my scars on that day,

        You knew exactly what I'd been through.

        

        We all knew this would happen,

        I'd fall for you and you'd fall for her.

        You'd refuse to be more than friends,

        You pushed me into the dirt.

        

        All those times when I thought of you,

        My wrists would bleed,

        My heart beats for one, not for two,

        And the fact is it's not for me.

        

        You saw my scars as they were exposed,

        You held me in your arms.

        You looked at me with the beauty of a rose,

        And that's when I knew you never meant any harm.

        No one's perfect,

        This I know.

        You're the one who's worth it,

        And I can't seem to let that go.

        

        My wrists are bleeding now,

        And I can't get them to stop.

        I'm about to fall down,

        I just hope you remember how-

        

        How much I loved you,

        How I'd always be there, always care.

        Both of our scars were exposed and then we both knew,

        That we'd both be scared.

        

        I know you're in pain,

        I know she hurt you.

        But I'm here to stay,

        This is true.

        

        Your beauty outshines the moon in the sky,

        Your eyes are brighter than the stars.

        When I see you hurt, I just want to die.

        Because it's just too hard.

        

         My wrists are bleeding now,

        And I can't get them to stop.

        I'm about to fall down,

        I just hope you remember how-

        

        How much I loved you,

        How I'd always be there, always care.

        Both of our scars were exposed and then we both knew,

        That we'd both be scared.

        

        Because we've all got scars that won't show.

        Some of them surround our hearts.

        But the scars that are exposed,

        They make us who we are.

        

        

        ^ Probably the longest poem I've posted. I didn't think it'd turn out great, but if you like it, let me know. It describes every bit of love I've ever felt for him...
