Bruises fade,
But the pain remains the same,
I remember so well
how your words kept me so ashamed.
Wounds heel,
But the scar is always their,
Forever haunting me
about how no one used to care.
Time heels everything,
But memories remain intact,
Forever leaving me somewhat hallow,
When I remember how the ways to me you once did act.
Years have passed,
And I haven't yet been able to move on,
Like an animal that has once been abused,
I have lost my faith in those who once did me wrong.
