the marks on my skin
scars, you say?
no
these are not scars
not battle scars to me
for me, they tell me a story,
one that gets told time and time again
because each time the story slips
it must be rewritten
retold
reborn
In some states of mind, these could be battle scars
but that is another's perception
every mark to the skin
every broken piece
every cell split open
