Self Conclusion
I have picked one too many fights
I chose what was easy- over what was right
The scars on my wrist show the battles that I have fought
The battles which I've lost
I used to think that I was a soldier; so brave and strong
I am not
I am rusted from my own tears
I cannot move
I cannot breathe
I used to think that I was brave; but now fear is in my way
Blood is slowly dripping down, into the lakes of tears I've created
Down to the memories I once hated
No one sees that my eyes show the memories of my past
No; it's far too late for that
I am gone
I am lost
