Scars

A photo albums sits on the highest shelf,

beckoning death and daring me to take just one look...

A look at the life i once lived.

A look at my heart.

I give into temptation and place my hands on the dust covered book.

I open the leather binding only to look into the eyes of a girl who died long ago.

Her eyes were but two jade shadows of innocence...

All that is now left of her is a cut up and weathered corpse whos eyes are sorrowful and hopeless.

I turn the page.

A dagger is thrust into my heart.

A part of me that has been dead for so long seems to come to life again.

A tear falls on your picture..

A soft spoken melody of betrayal.

Why?!?
