Scars on my Heart

Deep, bleeding slashes through my heart
Blood pools on the cold earth at my feet.
Make this unbearable pain stop! I beg you,
As other tears in my heart have closed up,
leaving only scars in my heart,
And agony in my memory.
Leave me with my fearful recollection,
Torment me no more, let me go!
A patchwork heart, mangled beyond recognition
by the scars of the past, and their pain,
Still throbs from the torture it endured.
