Scars. Tears. Wounds
Battle wounds.
Proof that you survived.
Survived things you never really thought possible.
It wasn't easy. Is anything, really?
Easy is for the weak.
No you are not weak.
Brave. Strong. A fighter.
Brave enough to overcome those demons.
Demons that tormented you, and pulled you apart.
But not anymore.
Push it aside. Bury it in the dirt.
Close the lid, and lock the lock.
Let. It. Be.
The past is just that. Over and done with.
Never to haunt you again.
Because you are a survivor.
And everything that demon rattled that lock,
Tell him "No, I am strong."
Because you are.

This is absolutly great. You can tell that you wrote it from personal experience but you dont over expose your self in it. the way you wrote left it open for interpretation and relatabilty to many different things, so many different people who have been through something can relate but you will always know what it was origianlly written for. really beutiful job.
