scars
There are more scars on my arms than stars in the sky.
There are more scars on my arms after i argue with you.
There are more scars on my arms when i remember what you did.
There are more scars on my arms when i wake in the morning.
There are more scars on my arms day by day.
There are more scars on my arms before you can say, 'dirty'.
There are more scars on my mind than stars in the sky.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
Robert Frost
Nicely put, just how I'd think of it, too. I went through the exact same phase when I was 14 and it very nearly turned to the worst
From arm a sudden twist to mind, good poem well concluded.But your indignation well presented.
