.....Scars.............

Touch my skin to remember what it was

Scared by life it now shows all it's flaws

Forced into fight fading from this light

There dreams come as midnight fright

From my cross it now bears it's mark

Journeys crossed ever lost in the dark

For in youth once more but to relive

Moments stolen as lost never to give

And the days now have grown older

Only to come closer and ever bolder

So touch what slumbers in memory

There behind scars look and again see

This what is seen still remains as me

For my scars tell my story ever to be
