Scarring

talkin never solves anything
words have no meaning
like the petty loss of blood
no one cares any more
than they did the day before
and still pain the remains
welling up inside of me
my heart is hanging heavy
dragging me down
onto the floor
where you can kick me for sport
purple bruises line my ribs
they shall remain forever
laying silent beneath my skin
tied by a tether
the pain still rings in my mind
tender to the touch,
the things ill never leave behind
shall haunt me
worse than ghosts theyll never go
they're scarred into my soul.
