Mar 2021
The wounds in my back have healed
But sometimes I swear I still feel
The ghost of your knife
Try and claim my life
Like it's nothing, not a big deal

I try to be the bigger person
I try to walk away
But no matter how hard I try
Or how much I cry
I end up crawling back to the pain

Wishing I would have done something
To try and stop you and your little game
I still stand by
Just a pawn in your eyes
For you to play with
and then throw away
