Scars

     Scars    

• You asked to see my scars so I showed the ones on my wrists, arms, and my legs. I told you those were the only ones, that was the first lie I ever told you
• You wanted to know what I mean so I told you 
• I said, “Most of my scars are inside.”
• But now that you're not here the scars are permanent leaving holes in my body, the ones you used to fill. 
• Maybe one day you’ll come back or maybe you won’t
• Sometimes when I sleep I can hear my demons screaming in pain and terror and I used to be so scared but now they’re my only friends. 
• They fill the holes in me with sorrow but it's better than the weight of emptiness.
• Help me just with one scar, the one you made.
