Scars

I'll walk away.

Just like you did.

Just like you did, 

Before you came back 

And begged for forgiveness.

I look at you 

A pathetic disappointment.

I can't believe

That I was so easily fooled.

You told me that the whole world would become mine.

You told me

That I would be happy.

Am I happy?

Do I look happy?

I have shed blood and tears

Because of you.

The nights when you come home

Drunk and wasted

Are the times where I fear for my life.

I shouldn't be fearing 

From you.

You're supposed to be the person 

That I come to when scared.

Yet 

For you me.

You are fear itself.

I want out.

I don't want to be with someone

Who enjoys

Hurting the people around him.

The sound of your belt 

Is a sound that I have become 

Accustomed to.

Beware, 

The day you look away,

I'll run away.

Escape from this nightmare.

You'll be sorry,

For everything you've done to me.

I'll keep the scars 

You've given to me.

To remind me

Of what happened to me.

And to remind me 

Of what a stupid idea you were. 

Don't look for me.

You won't find me.
