Scars and Burns

We laughed and spent my whole life in that house

But we never once got to know each other

I turned my whole life around

And yet you will never see me the way I am now

You say you'll never leave me

But where were you when I almost died

The flames licked at my skin

And the burns ran deep within

my body, my soul

Do we ever heal from a broken soul

Don't tell me you care

Don't tell me to be fair

Don't tell me to play nice

No one said that when you let my heart break

by your daggers of anger, and hate

I am the result of your injustice and prejudiceness

Now there is nothing left of me but

The hollow shell of what I once was

These scars and burns are a constant reminder to never trust again
