Commemorate 23

Its been so long

Since I last cut me,

That I can hold my arms

And not feel scars.

I can hold my elbows

And not feel scars.

I can hold my shoulders

And not feel scars.

I can hold my hips

And not feel scars.

But I hold my soul,

And I still feel scars.

I hasn't been long enough

Since I last cut me,

That I look at my arms

And still see lines.

I look at my elbows

And still see lines.

I look at my shoulders

And still see lines.

I look at my hips

And still see lines.

But I look at a blade,

And I don't see lines.
