Prompt- ',Memento M
ori' by AnnaMLKoski

The fire of anguish had left a scar on the soul,

A wound, that was constantly ripped open by sharp edged memories,

Salt of the tears, caused it to burn and ache further.

Making the body writhe in relentless unease, unable to vent the pain.

Mind, fogged by the haze of distress, countered pain with pain.

Hands, sculpting and carving the body into an artistic masterpiece.

The scars and wounds that had once tampered the smooth texture of skin,

Were now like enchanting runes of a mental malady, etched onto it,

Converting the once imperfect specimen, into a living monument.

A monument of truce, with anguish and incessant suffering,

And a beautiful reminder of the ultimate release, yet to come.

I do not support inflicting self harm. This was inspired by a character from.the story 'A cold wind blows' by AnnaMLKoski. It's a great story. If you are a lover of werewolf genre, you would like it.
