Deep Scar

What do you do
When your world
Suddenly turns to fire
Engulfed in hate
And sick with disgust

Do you continue
Do you flail yourself
Or do you just ignore?

How do I pass
By re-cutting
Emotional wounds
Over and over again
Until I do not feel
Do not even wince

Blocking pain simply
With the art of song
A deadly thirst
For a melody of pure
Immerse myself
First in hotter fire
Then in the love
Of a familiar sound

Do I dream of life
Yes, without pain?
I wish I could
But who would I be
With no shape
Nor form of hurt

Trying to rationalize
This unfathomable pain
Just isn't working

But I must push on
Live and let live
Happy or unhappy
For hopes of future
