SCARS

� � � � � Sadness envelops
� � � � � � � � � � � � My heart and soul
� � � � � � � � � � � � Keeping me confined
� � � � � � � � � � � � Choices taking their toll.

Freedom seems so far away
Melting into an abyss of emptiness.
Bloody parts and organs dying
Not coping well with all of the stress

� � � � � � � � � � � � Something grips me, leaving me cripple.
� � � � � � � � � � � � Tortured by my own worst enemy, myself
� � � � � � � � � � � � Too late for the past, so tainted
� � � � � � � � � � � � Unforgiven, unwanted,
� � � � � � � � � � � � enough tears to fill the well.

Never enough, never okay
Seeking revenge, but not today.
Isolated and alone, mortified
The wrongs I�ve done, now need to pay.

� � � � � � � � � � � � Frozen in fear of loss
� � � � � � � � � � � � My heart is protected with walls
� � � � � � � � � � � � Unwilling to trust another
� � � � � � � � � � � � Hemmed within myself, death now calls.

Depression eating me alive
Like a serpent that devours
My time is running out
These are my final hours.

� � � � � � � � � � � � The cycle starts anew
� � � � � � � � � � � � A million nails through my flesh
� � � � � � � � � � � � The misery and pain endure
� � � � � � � � � � � � Now I can only guess.

Clouded judgement causing scars
Leaving me utterly alone again
The past becoming the present
� � � � � � � �Going back to the sickness �
� � � � � � � � � �that has
� � � � � � � � � � � always
� � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � .....been
