My Scars Are Fading

by x_Zoey_Survivor_1987_x   Jan 31, 2006


It's eight weeks to the day sice i last hurt myself,
I've been working hard to find my inner wealth,

I'd hurt myself bad without any haste,
Always assuming my life was a waste,

The pain inside i can now subdue,
By using strategies i'm learning of a new,

Instead of punishing myself everyday,
I express myself in other ways,

My scars are fading in and out,
I feel much better without a doubt,

Now there's sanity running through my veins,
I've got some control, i'm holding the reins.
