Scars fade. All kinds. But some remain, and as they fade I find it hard to let them leave. I can see the blood fall off my arms like it was yesterday. Tiny droplets of myself fall one by one into the drain. I remember the feeling. And I remember the hatred for myself. And I remember the everyday struggle. But something is hard to let go. It will forever be a part of me, but how large of a part? That is the new struggle. One more scar to try to get rid of.
