My arm is healed now. Thats a good thing right? There are no more angry red lines There is no more itching There aren't even traces of the scars. I can wear short sleeves again.   I swore it was a one time thing. "Never again, you have my word", I promised to the loved ones i had shown. So why do i feel like I want to paint my skin in red stripes once more?

Angry Red Lines
My arm is healed now. Thats a good thing right? There are no more angry red lines There is no more itching There aren't even traces of the scars. I can wear short sleeves again.   I swore it was a one time thing. "Never again, you have my word", I promised to the loved ones i had shown. So why do i feel like I want to paint my skin in red stripes once more?
They've only just healed... why do i want to put more in their place?
