Scars may fade, but they last forever
-Bridgett Devoue
My love for you
is no less
than a scar on my skin.
Some believe
it makes my skin
look ugly.
Others think
like me,that
this one scar, makes me “me”
It’s a scar
I happily bear
on my raw dark brown skin.
But one day,
it starts to fade aways,
just like that.
Then you turn back
and give me your impish smile
and it resurfaces.
The deeper it goes
the stronger my love gets,
they go hand-in-hand.
It’s a story
I will tell
if it ever reaches its end.
It may fade again
with time
so don’t look back again.
Because this time
I don’t want you, scargiver
I want a healer.
