Scares

I can see the marks

I've made on my arms,

My wrists,

My thighs,

My ankles

As if they were made

Yesterday.

Some were

Some weren't.

But others are redder,

Pinker,

Itchier,

More painful then the rest.

More satisfying to my twisted need

To feel.

Some were made,

Just today.

Will I ever stop my scaring?

Will they ever fade away?

Not for me they wont.

They will haunt me,

Like putrid, manic reminders

Of my insanity.
