scars

to me

scars are beautiful

they show us where we've been

not where we're going

they remind us of battles

we once had to face

 

to me

scars make us strong

they paint a picture

of the darkness

you once lived in

 

to me

scars show us the past

they take you places

of sadness and sin

 

but look around

everyone has scars

some old

some new

they're all special

to me
