Scabs and sutures....

[myeyeslie]

Here I sit
Talking to you
Picking these scabs
Bleeding again
I thought they were scars
But I see now
They never healed
I see now..
They never will
They will always be scabs
Or bleeding sores
Because I always want to pick them
Just once more..
Just to see you
Or to hear your voice
To remind me
Remind me of that pain
The hurt and screams
To remember the love
That still bleeds....

Don't you feed me lines about some idealistic future. Your heart won't heal right if you keep tearing out the sutures...
