The Girl With All The Scars

(TGWATS)

By Amadi LettmanPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

She was born into the world

She didn’t ask for it

But she is

Sculpted from the crack held close to her makers lips

She is born

And now she breathes

With no recollection of early existence

Her corner is cold and silent

Her protector unable to protect

She takes the beating

She keeps quiet

Fast forwarding unknowingly

She escapes

They know of her but don’t know her

But they decide her fate

She’s suddenly missing her corner

Lashing out from the lashes

It doesn’t help

Exuding adolescence

She enters her first prime

The dream is to be noticed but unknown

She’s known

Jessica Rabbitesk

She walks in mystery with her head held high

She grows

And her body fails her

It creates an image worth killing over

She tried to find herself

And found herself labeled

Her A is coincidental

The adhesive rips seep through her black

With the weight of herself on her back

She stands

She never falls

She pushes forward

Her heart now broken

Too many times to count

She must decide to break it again

It’s unfixable

She’s unfixable

But she’s strong for them

Or she would die.
