Scars Poem by Megan Gerbs

Lost and Broken,
Shattered to pieces.
She sat there thinking,
about the mistake she made.

She knew she couldn't take it back,
everyone knew.
She was hurt,
She was scared.

What could she do?
She thought the worst had happened,
but she was wrong,
the worst of it was still to come.

Surrounded by walls,
that are slowly closing in on her,
keeping her alone,
Alone in her room, trying new things.

Confused,
She sits there with the blade,
Her wrist ready,
and the scars shown, from all the other times.

Shocked and scared,
She trusted too easily,
She trusted the wrong people,
that's the mistake she made.
