Please,
remember what I try to forget
so I don't lose touch
with who I am now.
Please,
clench those memories
in the black of night
so I may sleep without torment.
Please,
carve the scars off my skin
so I can look at my reflection
without flinching with disgust
Please,
bear the burden of my past
so that I can carry on
with my life in the present.
