scars from the past

The scars from the past
They're tattooed across the heart.
Those scars make you believe
It's the kiss of death
You want to feel.
You want to see past the false,
You'd give everything just to see the truth.
The hauntings that come with those scars
The painful memories of abandonment
And abuse.
These scars hold every story,
Since your first
Innocent breath.
These scars from your past
They follow you everywhere.
You can't hide nor can you escape them.
Those scars are there to haunt you.
