and i also love your scars

 

 

..............

 

 

 

remember the days

you lost your cool?

and screamed at me 

like a thoughtless fool?

remember the day

you forgot your 

wallet?

and i sat waiting 

in the restaurant til

you went home 

and got it?

 

 

think me crazy,

wrinkle that brow,

and i know i never 

told you this until now,

it's not just how 

you gaze on me 

like one would 

at the stars,

it's because

i love you, 

and i also love 

your scars.

 

 

you're always 

so diligent,

at being the 

best you can be,

and i know 

you won't change,

at least i hope 

not for me,

because if you

only knew,

how i see through 

that act, 

and it's why

i so appreciate

all those things

you think you lack.

 

so go on,

think me crazy,

wrinkle that brow,

and i know i never 

told you this until now,

it's not just how 

you gaze on me 

like one would 

at the stars,

it's because

i love you, 

and i also love 

your scars.

 

 

the cute little 

way you admit to 

your wrongs,

the way you look

at me when i 

sing you a song,

that twinkle 

in your eye

that can get so 

very dim, but 

lights up like a 

diamond when 

you see me walk in,

wouldn't be so 

amazing if i 

never knew 

your pain,

and it nurtures

this love so,

as sweet as a cello,

i know it will

always remain.

 

 

so go on,

think me crazy,

wrinkle that brow,

and i know i never 

told you this until now,

it's not just how 

you gaze on me 

like one would 

at the stars,

it's because

i love you, 

and i also love 

your scars.

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
