shame I can not hide <br />ugliness clearly displayed <br />shattered life never mended <br />brokenness written upon flesh <br />ashamed of unfading scars <br />tormented battle rages in my mind <br />screaming- just lay down the knife <br />weakness, failing again <br />as another scar is traced <br />bottled up tears releasing <br />washing over crimson wrists <br />desperate wishes to end this <br />a battle painfully lost, <br />and already started again <br />as another cut spills more shame.<br /><br />Silentpoet Grl<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/unfading-scars/
