My Battle Scars

You gasp at what you see
Never knowing I had these
I watch you as you scan
Kept on watching as you ran

My eyes are like mirrors
Reflecting to you, all my terrors
I thought you'd be the one
Who would accept and never shun

I guess I was heavily mistaken
Adding more to keep my heart breaking
Its sad, that I find myself without tears
I guess I ran out of drops through the years

In my eyes is an image of you
I knew your words couldn't be true
Why would someone love me?
Yet I showed you, wishing to see

I let you see past my eyes
To see how my soul wishes to fly
However the more you looked, the more you seen
You saw scars I had, and didn't wish to wipe them clean

A mirror image of you running away
Running out of dark and into day
That's all anyone will ever see
Is an image of forced glee

I walk away as it begins to rain
Allowing it, to be the one to take my pain
Taking the key, I lock my heart up tight
My battle scars all I have, day and night
