Invisible Scars

This is a song I wrote about 3 years ago which was not that long after I first picked up a guitar. The guitar part is really quite minimal so I figured this would be a good candidate to put on here because it's almost like a poem. Although I don't want to give myself too much credit. It's called Invisible Scars.

I'll go out on a limb, 
I'll say she's gonna live.
But she's not doing well, The wounds are fresh-
They have not healed.

Invisible scars,
Cover the sky of her skin like stars.
Making it hard- to start again.
Invisible scars,
They darken her heart like tar.
Making it hard- to love again.

It's gonna take some time,
Some tears have yet to leave her eyes.
She is not alright, Because it's me-
Whose stole her shine.

Invisible scars,
Cover the sky of her skin like stars. 
Making it hard- to start again.
Invisible scars,
They darken her heart like tar.
Making it hard- to love again.

I took her to the edge.
I broke her down until she bled.
Her love for me a waste. All that's left-  
Left on her face.

But I'll go out on a limb.
I'll say she's gonna live.
