Old to New
I remember the scars on your wrists
The way you used to scratch them
The way you wished you could erase them
I remember your sad smile
The way it was fake
The way it was forced
I remember the depression and suicide
The was you cried at night
The way you wished you were dead
I remember the anxiety
The way you chewed on your fingernails
The way you tapped your pencil on the desk
But that's no longer you
That was the old you
The new you is my boyfriend
My lover
My soulmate
He loves himself
He wants to live
He wants to see the days ahead
He doesn't want to let go of life
He's gonna live and tell his story
For other people who were like him to hear
He wants them to know
"There's more to life than we know"
