WORDS OF THE DEAD

(SELF-HARM)

Your scars do not define you

No one sees
The scars on their skin
The scars in their brain
Had they been
Told of what was yet to come
They would put those blades in the bin
Their life would fix itself from within

But they didn't listen
So now they sit; while the metal glistens
In their right hand
Life, was like the sinking sands
Spilling out from within their palms

They put down the blade
Knowing that, if  they had stayed
In that room, he'd cut himself
In a quest to find his true self

I throw the blades in the bin
And their life fixed itself from within
One day those scars will heal
As I for once, grab the steering wheel
For I am now, in control
I now, found their soul
Finding the thing they was looking for
I go back to the room, taking the blades out of the drawer

And throw them in the bin
Now his life can heal from within
Now, follow my lead

And throw them in the binNow his life can heal from withinNow, follow my lead
