Just a Scar

I have this spot
on my arm
Sometimes it is fine
barely noticeable

But others,
it hurts,
it's red,
I pick it apart

It never goes away

I worried it was
skin cancer
some deadly thing

then thought it
a simple wart
something benine
but gross

But, no
actually,
it turns out
it's a scar

A recurring scar
like a shaving cut
on your knee
over, and over

It never goes away

Just a scar
sometimes quite
sometimes enraged

But, it never goes away
