Scars

Deep yet shallow Unasked and unwanted Although the nerves are raw They leap and twist My scars do the talking Carrying them around Unabashed and gracefully In every scar, there’s a beauty untold A story of resilience, brave and bold. No flaws to hide, but medals worn, Of battles fought and challenges borne. Like stars in the sky, our scars shine bright, Guiding lights in the darkest night. Reminders that even in pain, there’s light, In our scars, our strength ignites Scars, bridges between past and present, Scars speak a language, silent but true, A dialect of survival, known by few. In their silence, a story unfolds, Of endurance, of courage, of tales untold.
