Scar-borne Soul

All alone in a sea full of strife
Where struggle may cost a life
I walk by the shore
Watched over like never before


I've been here for ages
As you prove in your pages
To others you saw were eyesores
You knew I was yours


You claimed the stakes
No share for less of handshakes


All alone here where fights are rife
When one can cut peace with a knife
I look over at impending war
You're all no less of a boor


You sit back with certainty
Sure everyone would leave me be
On me you've put your claim
Indifferent until they came


Suddenly I was wanted
A pained soul down planted


All alone where I see you contrive
With plans only you can connive
I lay wounded and sore
My scars dying to abhor


Had you known I was a scar-borne soul
Cajoling me, your ultimate goal
You owned me for far too long
Though to you I never belong


Walking and fighting for me
Your presumed property


All alone in a sea full of strife
When one can cut peace with a knife
I lay wounded and sore
While you all fight for a score

All alone here where fights are rife
Where struggle may cost a life
My scars dying to abhor
And detest you who fight up fore
