Array ( [sid] => 57423 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => growing up too fast [time] => 2004-07-24 15:05:30 [hometext] => i worte this a while ago, its for my birth mom. I appreciate comments. [bodytext] => For all the times I ran away,
For all the fines we’ve had to pay,
For all the fighting everyday,
There are scars.
For any hurtful words I’ve said,
For any tears I might have shed,
For knowing it will be worse ahead,
There are scars.
For all the hurt you’ve put me through,
For all the dreams while missing you,
And knowing you won’t miss me too,
There are scars.
For all the times we’ve yelled and screamed,
For all the things you threw at me,
For all the sadness you didn’t see,
There are scars.
For the stories and the lies
For the never-ending cries,
That made me want to leave, to die,
There are scars.
For all the betrayals, the broken hearts
For all the times we were apart,
For all the slaps that were so sharp,
There are many scars.
When I get older, sad and gray
And I look back upon these days,
I won’t forget your hurtful ways,
Because when you look down at my arms
You’ll see these bleeding, tearing, scars
And I won’t have to try and explain,
How much I hurt, the extent of my pain.
These scars I have won’t fade away,
You’ll have to see them everyday,
And maybe then you won’t forget,
I’m not even fifteen yet,
And you’ll know what ruined me,
From the scars, the cuts you see.

There are scars.
For all the hurt you’ve put me through,
For all the dreams while missing you,
And knowing you won’t miss me too,

For all the times we’ve yelled and screamed,
For all the things you threw at me,
For all the sadness you didn’t see,
