Scars

These burns, the empty holes
Marked and scarred it has taken its toll
They are reminiscent of you
And everything we have been through

Slowly healing, the gaps forever closing
Its time to move on and continue composing
This tale of mine that only I can finish
I will not let the ending become diminished

Each new breath relieves pressure from my chest
Smiles become more common than just guests
The cracks in my heart start to fill and become whole
As I finally start to gain self-control
