Chapter Two ~ Scars

Wake Up Older


Chapter Two ~ Scars


'I tear my heart open, I sow myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
My scars remind me that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel'

Empty eyes stared out into the sunset. He had been there for hours, staring into the sky, not really seeing it. He had left Veronica's house and hadn;t stopped until he arrived here. This was always his favorite thinking spot. This was where he had come after his visit to the car wash the day Lilly died. This was where he had come after Veronica had stood him up a few weeks ago.


Drunk and I'm feeling down
and I just wanna be alone
I'm pissed cause you came around
Why don't you just go home
Cause you channel all your pain
and I can't help to fix myself
Your making me insane
All I can say is

It was so serene here, so peaceful. Nothing to disturb him. Nothing to keep him from his thoughts. Thoughts of Lilly, her spirit, her love of living, her love of danger. Thoughts of his Father, thoughts of the beatings, the fights, the late nights when Lynn had sat up crying before she numbed the pain with pills and Vodka. Thoughts of Duncan, the way he used to laugh and light up when Veronica was around. Then the thoughts of Veronica assualted him. The thoughts of how she was before Lilly died, so naive and sweet. So gulliable, then he thought of how she had changed, she had become harder, more determined, more beautiful.

I tear my heart open, I sow myself shut
My weakness is that I care too much
My scars remind me that the past is real
I tear my heart open just to feel

He remembered the first time she kissed him and a smile came to his face, but didn't reach his eyes. Then he quickly remembered the way she looked on the beach, the way she backed away from him when he got close. He blocked all thoughts of her out, doing his best to return to his quiet review of the sunset.


I tried to help you once
A kiss will only vise
I saw you going down
But you never realized
That your drowning in the water
So I offered you my hand
Compassions in my nature
Tonight is our last dance

Her question floated to the surface of his mind, the quiet way she asked him, her tone near begging when she asked if he was going to come back.

With one last look into the sunset Logan started up his Jeep, slammed into reverse and spun tires, racing back to the main road, his mind finally set.

He was never going home again.
