Scar Tissue and Current Happenings

They say that it can be easy

As simple and gentle as breathing

but when you inhale pain, exhale regret

Maybe holding your breath is the safest bet

When you look in my eyes who do you see?

The girl who's strong and and carefree

Or the girl who is breaking at the seams?

We aren't strangers, yet you can't understand

How picking up the pieces of me is too much

I wouldn't blame you, my lips will never curse you

If you decide that two crosses is much too heavy

Here's my advice to you, run far and run fast

Get away from me, I can't outrun my past.

I know I am six years late but thank you so much for taking the time to read my writing. Their is a kinship in writing that makes it all feel less isolating.
