Scars,

Road maps through my life,

Dark ones, light ones,

Fresh ones, healed ones.

They show the hell I've been through.

Deep ones, shallow ones.

Give me a blade and I'll use it.

Why is it I feel this way?

Why is it I found this way to cope?

Give me the medication I'll take it.

I may not want it but I'll take it.

Just tell me how to be,

And I'll try my best.

But never will I make a promise.
