Hidden Scars

by Vacant Expressions   Sep 15, 2007


Try so hard to hide my scars from view
Wishing people not to see the pain I went through
I don't want people to know I wasn't strong enough to fight
Cover the story of my past so its not in sight

My past haunts me every where I go
These scars just fade to slow
When people stop and stare
The overwhelming desire to hide I cant bare

The pain was my pleasure, the razor my friend
It was all I needed to help me mend
Chrism tears dripped down my wrist
Longing for the happiness that I had missed

Childhood dreams gone wrong
My silent cries of despair played like a song
To me death was only the beginning
And the fight of life, I wasn't winning

I didn't want people to know I cried
So I put on a fake smile and lied
I said everything was Ok
Just to keep the questions at bay

In the still darkness of my room I let my sorrow show
I stopped pretending and let my tears flow
As a chrism river poured down my arm
As I only wished to do myself more harm

And now I try to hide my scars from view
Wishing people not to see the pain I went through
I don't want people to know I wasn't strong enough to fight
Cover the story of my past so its not in sight
