Scars

all i have now are scars
scars to keep away the pain
scars to remember what happened that day
scars that told the past
scars that tell the future.

all i have now is pain
pain to keep away the memories
pain to flush the happiness away
pain that eats at me
pain that watches itself bleed

all i can keep now are memories
memories that replay the scars
memories that replay the pain
memories that keep me together
and memories that tear me apart

pain can keep the memories away
but sometimes the memories keep you from falling under
the scars only mask the pain
and pain is only temporary
scars are forever.
