Doubt is the beginning, not the end, of wisdom


My canvas here is missing something.
Just one more scar is all it needs.
With a metal paintbrush and bright red ink,
I can make my masterpiece complete.
My outside is naked, my insides are empty.
I let my other self overtake me.
Just one moment is all it took.
To see the damage, take a look.
I've begged for salvation and received more affliction.
These scars go beyond self-done pain infliction.
They're a revelation for all to see
And a portrait of what they've done to me.

I told myself it would be the very last time.
