Battle Scars
The fight was long and arduous
But sensibility was victorious
Still the battle looms on
By the scars left on my arms
Reminders of the war in my mind
Painfully obvious with each line
Tracing each one with my fingertip
Slowly remembering each drip
The relentless pursuit of relief
With each incision made deep
They will remain with me forever
As constant reminders of my endeavour
