We all bare scars – from our journey
through this world.
And we all limp along the road
of life,
having to bare them.
There is no way to avoid them – because
life will always
be a series of losses, until our journey
comes to an end.
The best we can do – both now and future
is to hold our head up
along the way,
and find a way to bare them.

Few things are as empowering
Few things are as empowering as owning our scars, being our authentic selves and, as you wisely advised, holding "our head up/ along the way". Valuable guidance on our path to serenity.
a bit of rubber on the wheels
The road of life – is full of lumps and bumps. Best to put a bit of rubber on the wheels and know a touch of first-aid. Poetry, being one of those cathartic practices.
