The scars and cuts are my calendar.
each one of them carry testimony
that yet another day i must live.
They witness that each day I when feel
the soothing pain and the sound
of skin divided,
i feel alive once more.
The pain is no longer an excuse
for my own misery.
It is a way to remind me
that in not to long all this cuts and scars
will unite, and i will be no longer.
That final cut will be then end
of my calendar
