Scarred

By nesbia

My tears burnt your skin
Tiny crystal of scar
Forever imprinted
For the world to see
The pain
My heart left for you

Your words
Dripped like acid
On my heart
Trailing prints like glaciers
Inside of me
Telling me lies

Our dance is in our heads
A melody of mystery
Reinvented every second
In our hands
Molded like clay
Are the feelings we hid
