Faded Wounds.... Never really mend!

The red of blood hurt and despair
Seem to fade but are always there
The scares they fade into our skin
But still they always lie within

Our hearts always appear to mend
But with glue and tape it's just pretend
Our smiles show that we've moved on
But when alone it's not for long

Our eyes they glow with a special shine
But only to hide all the pain behind
We try to smile through the sweetest lips
But the knife still lies between our finger tips.
