Our scars show the wars Past tears & growth Birth, trauma the healing over The telltale signs of living for better or worse Reminders of pain, loss Gain What has been here & now gone Choices we made Toxic spills cleaning up The calcification stone rub of our sentence & prison years , Falling down Falling up the ****** **** gauzed over Second skins Words harming me and mine bleeding on the inside cuts tear scars sear the burning of rhyme chaos in mind Faded welts from forgotten paths but not forgotten for etched in flesh Rivlets bumps holes puckered scars aberrations in our universe The pink red welts The wriggle worms mind slashes time our years our fears Our scars & battles Survive these days our ways past memories ripping apart the darkness Letting in the light Green glow of heart Glow of hope The truest carefree smile Full breath of life No holding back relax Our scars only signs Our miracles of flesh and light Revenants left behind Momentos Memories Souveniers from the roads we traveled I wish to store my scars Away in jars I don’t mind the reminders but please no remembering today.

Our Scars
Our scars show the wars Past tears & growth Birth, trauma the healing over The telltale signs of living for better or worse Reminders of pain, loss Gain What has been here & now gone Choices we made Toxic spills cleaning up The calcification stone rub of our sentence & prison years , Falling down Falling up the ****** **** gauzed over Second skins Words harming me and mine bleeding on the inside cuts tear scars sear the burning of rhyme chaos in mind Faded welts from forgotten paths but not forgotten for etched in flesh Rivlets bumps holes puckered scars aberrations in our universe The pink red welts The wriggle worms mind slashes time our years our fears Our scars & battles Survive these days our ways past memories ripping apart the darkness Letting in the light Green glow of heart Glow of hope The truest carefree smile Full breath of life No holding back relax Our scars only signs Our miracles of flesh and light Revenants left behind Momentos Memories Souveniers from the roads we traveled I wish to store my scars Away in jars I don’t mind the reminders but please no remembering today.
