The scars on my wrists
remind me of this
intense feeling of pain.
Not the blood rushing out
nor the blade of my skin.
But the darkness,
the pain,
the pain within.
Taylor
As someone who still carries scars from their past, they are a reminder of where I was, compared to where I am now. They show me the darkness and pain that I felt, and although sad to have to carry it with me, its a positive reminder of where I came from, and where I don’t want to go again.
