Artistic Scars

Everyone questions it

Everyone stares

At the words written

On my wrist and on my jeans

They ask me why

I tell them it's boredom

But deep down it's something more

When there's a word on my skin

Or the fabric of my jeans

It means something to me

Weather it's the pain I feel

Put into song lyrics

a cry for help

To help me escape my spiraling sadness

Or it's a loving reminder

Something cheerful

A site of better days

I made a promise to someone dear

I would never forever scar my skin

So I take these temporary artistic scars

As my way of emotional release

When my mind spirals out of control

They keep me Sane

These scars may not be permanent

But they are no less meaningful to me

So I'll continue to create

To make beautiful words on my skin

Or my jeans

The artistic scars won't go away

If they do

Who knows what I might do....
