One Last Scar

I dreamt of pain and sorrow,
Waking up wishing there was no tomorrow,
My face covered in tears,
How I ever lived all these years?
Is a mystery to all my peers.

Life has flashed me by once before,
Death reappearing at my door,
To take my soul once more.
Reappearing dreams still shadow in my mind,
Of bad memories that happened once upon a time,
That scarred my soul for all of time.
