TATOO

I have a mark
that won't go away
& it goes deep
it takes me back to that day

Realizing that even though
the wound is closed
the scar is still there
& that is what I wear

Take a plate and break it
watch it shatter
try to glue it back
but it will never flatter

it won't look like it once did
things will never be the same
even if you look at it in the dark
it's too late you've already left a mark

try to get it removed
but I can still feel the groove
so I'll have to wear it
even though it's hard to bear it

Beautiful

Really beautiful. It brings up so many memories and reminds me of the scars that, I too, wear. The words really speak to me.
Thank you for your beautiful words.


If your mirror doesn't find you one of the most beautiful people it has ever seen, punch it and find a better mirror.

Thank You

Thank You! It was a poem I had written in a notebook a while back and found. I was hesitant to share it but now I am glad that I did!
