The Only Thing I Get To Keep

Its painful to live to even breathe I want to die but you won’t let me leave My depression grows deeper pulling me apart The scars on my arms is so much deeper in my heart I still remember him on me that day I asked him why but he had nothing to say That was not the first time, it happened 8times before I hate men using me, I can’t take it anymore No one knows that im going to die I tell you im all right, what a perfect lie I feel like crying but I know id get no where I wish you would leave I hate it when you care Pain doesn’t hurt when its all you’ve ever felt My heart is the coldest ice unable to melt I wanted to say good bye but theres no time For deaths walls I already climb I held the knife so close it went so deep The scar is the only thing I get to keep….

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
