Beauty In the Scars

The scars on my heart
Seen by the slaches on my skin
To feel the pain
Rising from deep within

Death is not the wanting
Blackness is not the desire
Imagine of the blood
Could smoother the fire

She desperately reached out
In riddles and ryhms
Trying to put the pieces together
Of all the hard times

The thorn that twist and turn
As it punctures my side
No one hears me scream
All my silent cries

Thank you so much. It doesn't make me feel beautiful though. The scars or the pain.
