Share with me

the wear and tear

of a human heart


Lovers

bearing scars


bare to me all

the unpretty things

that make you

beautiful

Each scar tells a story of the heart, how we have experienced pain and hurt, but survived. Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes by C.S. Lewis "Experience: that most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn".
