Scars
Proof of the damage you inflicted upon me
Is still left behind for the world to see
The remnants left there for me to wear
Are a permanent reminder of the despair
It started out as joy then grew to love
I truly believed you were the one I dreamed of
But much too soon the love began to fade
And before long I found myself betrayed
You purposely left my heart in quite a mess
But it never mattered nonetheless
You aren't sorry and my pain never mattered
It didn't bother you that my heart was shattered
You view my scars as a sort of victory
That have been etched quite deep to reveal our history
I don't understand it but that matters none
Because the war is over and you have won
I'll take what's left and be on my way
These scars on my heart will never go away
