A younger version of me

A younger version of me

A Poem by Liz Alexander

A time before I used to be
An "emo" not really but the mark
On my heart be come scratches on my arm
Moments when I pulled up my sleeve
The base of my arm was red
With many scratch marks
Made with a fork or tips of my finger nails
Since that time I have grown up little by but seeing hem with her
Makes the feelings of that younger version of me 
Taking the fork making my arm red just like 
The Jabs to my heart
My forks my version of the knife 
That are stabbing me in the heart

Nice analogy, I inserted my own commas where I felt necessary though I do not know if that was your intention..really love the last two lines of the poem.
