Think Back Those scars that we bear on our arms Those things that we have to hide from our family and friends Those things that haunt us everyday Scaly, rough and tough lasts for so long But the most important thing Is the reason behind it The reason why it all started The reason why they did it Yet no one really wonders why They all ask about the scar Hows it going hows it doing While they forget what it symbolizes The power the scars have What they can possibly cause And what they will lead to And after it heals, what happens? People start to forget And people will continue what they had started And the cycle will start once again Until the victim runs out of room in their body to scar That is when the thing they decide to scar Is their lifeline And only When they are far long gone Do people start to realize their wrongs Their actions Their words Their behavior And what they really did to this person They remember the times ***** has told them to stop They remember when ***** started to get less quiet Less happy, less energetic They finally realized how What they did to this person was something they should had never done in the first place Yet it is too late to go back Back when they were here By, Jeannie Palma
