The following includes a poem OWNED AND WRITTEN by me, Erika Tressler.
Written May 5th, 2019
Girl with the Scars
You see that girl
Standing over there
Well, she has scars
Scars everywhere
The girl with the scars
Has them from shoulder to thigh
The girl with the scars
Doesn't want to die
The girl with the scars
Only does it to defy
The girl with the scars
Is tired of the lie
The girl with the scars
You'll never see her cry
The girl with the scars
Holds a fire in her eye
The girl with the scars
Is the strongest you'll ever meet
The girl with the scars
Will never admit defeat
The girl with the scars
Marches to her own beat
The girl with the scars
You will never again cheat
The girl with the scars
Will never be obsolete
The girl with the scars
Will stay strong and sweet
The girl with the scars
Believes in you
The girl with the scars
Knows that it's true
The girl with the scars
Is giving you a clue
The girl with the scars
Knows you'll survive too
