It's time to heal the scars

by Avrii Monrielle   Jan 3, 2006


Tired of just living, breathing
Like there's nothing left of my past
Forgetting, leaving
That door of past ajar

No more pecks on the cheek
No more hugs
No more kisses
No more blushes

No more of that old love
It's time to heal the scars

If I have to forget
To remember happier times
I volunteer to experiment
I am nobody's child

I refuse to love a faded image
It's all just a shadowed lie
I don't really need him...right?

It's fading...
Oh, that light of love is fading...
That past love is frozen...
I have to lose him...

As the tunnel darkens
And light disappears
All hope of ever getting back together
Leaves my mind
I'm erasing it
I will leave it

I will sacrifice that past
That wonderful past
I am going to throw away the last remains
Of a perfect lover the world never got to see

I'm leaving it
Leaving it behind
On the beach
It'll wash away
The sand
The scars of time

I'll return back to where I came
Not from an unreleased memory
As the walls in my mind start caving
Caving, caving in

No, I have not shed a tear
It was his loss, I know
The one thing I held on to
Disappeared shortly after long

If love is a fairytale
I still agree to that
I agree there's a soul mate for each person
Imagine a heart being laid out flat
That's how it feels
It stops beating
No love, no softness clinging to my throat
No beautiful memories
No more songs
Oh, how he loved me
But that love is gone

    Oh I can really relate. I experienced this exactly after I broke up with my first boyfriend, it was unreal and I was in denial. This is very true, my only suggestion is that in the line "That door of past ajar" you might want to put "the" infront of past, because with out the article it makes past seem like an adverb to ajar which doesn't make any sence. But other than that Great work.
