Chapter 1: Scars

Chapter Text

My spirals are carved into my skin
My failures are preserved
In the tissues beneath my flesh
My flaws are written with the blood I once drew
A permanent mark where a blade has once been

The broken skin on my knuckles
is a reminder of the fight I've won
The fight against my own mind
My scars are the remains of a battlefield
Each closed cut shows how far I've come

My scars are my closest friend
and my worst enemy all at once
My scars are proof of my resilience
They are my reminder that there is more to life
than simply surviving
