When they see

by Lost Girl   May 25, 2005


Never wanted anyone to see my scars
Hide away, so afraid of what lies ahead
So much judgment, guilt ridden minds
Hear the words, replaying what they said

Tear right into me, obviously I can’t feel
Wasn’t my aim to hurt you, not my intention
Sorry so much, hate their prying eyes
They all saw, what’s in store? More attention

Wish that I could turn back time
And remove all of those stupid cuts
What if I had resisted the temptation?
My mind’s full of “what if”s and “but”s

I can’t turn back time and remove the blood
Nor can I take back all the mistakes I made
Wish I could though, and re-lived life
So I will just wait for ever until the cuts fade

    Yeah, I sometimes wish that my scars would disappear too but in the end I just accept that they're a part of me. Glad you seem to be trying to move away from cutting and you've expressed yourself well in this poem I think.
    love anna
