Scars
The scars on the outside
Match those on the in
Everyone looks at me
like I committed some major sin
They don't understand
But they don't need to
These scars are part of me
Like your soul part of you
I finally quit
Cutting myself
After so many years
The knife is on the shelf
I can't say that at times
I don't wanna go back
But I finally got my life
Back on track
So fuck all those haters
They don't understand
And truthfully
I don't give a damn
Author notes
this is truthfully how I deal with people who dont like my scars
scars heal
so who cares what they think
they dont' know you
who you are inside
so really who needs them or cares wut they think

Scars .... So difficult to deal with, and sometimes to overcome - but
it sounds like you can manage yours just fine, which, after they're inflicted, is one of the most important parts

Excellent Poem...
Outstanding job, you did so well on this one. It hurts to know someone else feels as I do. Once again great job and good luck...
