Beautiful Scars

by Zoe   May 25, 2007


I wrote this for someone special
You know who you are
Thanks for leaving me with a broken heart
And all these beautiful scars

As a little girl I believed in such love
One emotion only one man can give.
But now I sit and wonder, Is it true?
With, or without it, Could I possibly live?

You angel has fallen
slowly turning herself to stone
wishing for nothing more but death
But the beautiful scars speak to me

Telling me "Donâ??t use him as the reasonâ??
"For only I am your realityâ??
"Don't tell yourself you're done
Or youâ??ll be your own brutality"

I know Iâ??m no where near perfection
But for you, I tried so hard to be
You knew my strengths and weaknesses
And you used them against me

each day, Iâ??m forced to pick myself up
Off of the ground you left me to die
In the beginning you were everything
And toward the end, the perfect lie.

You leave me one choice
That only I can make on my own
So I'll throw myself in the darkness,
And be one of the unknown

you see the bitterness in my eyes
along with the coldness of my voice
but donâ??t worry its just the sign of a broken girl
Afraid to show her true feelings

The beautiful knife calls me name
as each slit runs deeper than the last
making me laugh at your so called â??loveâ??
and forget about my bitter past

blood flows over my arm
leaving me with a sick mixture of pleasure and pain
watching myself sink into a sea of misery
Praying I donâ??t drown

my scars only make me stronger
Fighting against my weak mind
Convincing myself this isnâ??t what I want
No matter how badly I do

Either way I lose, you see
If Iâ??m alive, I live in misery
If I die, I let you win
So Iâ??m stuck here in hell

Forever forced to watch my perfect razor blade
Dance wickedly across my skin
Leaving a perfect little trails of blood
making beautiful scars
