Tear

Tear

Sometimes we can tear
We can rip off pieces 
Of ourselves as we go
Along wounding and
Tearing ourselves as we
Go along the jagged 
Twisted roads of life
It can be easy to pick 
Up these tears and rips
Leaving scars across
Our bodies and scars
In our minds as we 
Move along in life
If they are really deep
They can begin to tear
Over and over again as
We continue to take 
Damage and hardships
Never truly healing our
Tears and our wounds
We can just keep
Reopening the same old
Wounds and not knowing
How to get rid of the pain 
That keeps building up
Inside that they can't 
Control the pain and the
Hurt and the internal scars
That keep breaking and 
Bleeding as we try to find
Different ways to bandage 
Our own wounds
Unfortunately we often
Choose the wrong things
To try and heal our pain
Or heal our scars and we
Can ultimately end up
Hurting ourselves more
In the process trying to
Stitch ourselves back 
Together again from 
The mess that our
Lives can easily become
But the only thing that 
Can heal any scar is love
Love heals all wounds both
Physical and emotionally
And especially spiritual
It is the only thing in life
That can completely heal
Everything if we allow it
We just have to be willing
To seize and find that inner
Well of love and peace
And healing inside of 
Ourselves to truly set
Ourselves free from
The pain and the scars
And all of the restrictions
That come from holding
On to those scars and 
Allowing them to build
Over time until the pain
And scars can become 
All we will ever know

very long,,but very nice!!yeah,we are the one who is responsible to heal our wounds and scars which was brought about because of our wrong decision in life,,,thank GOD for every smile and HE will help us not to feel the pain in every pain and tears we are suffering''well write Sir

[Ahmad Cox]

Yay. You got the secret message and intention behind the poem. I am glad you saw it. Its truly through Gods love and peace and hope that we can heal all scars and wounds. It is the true meaning of the atonement. But whats even more miraculous is that God works through us to heal others as well. I feel like God has used me in a lot of ways to heal others but I have received a lot of healing myself in the process and the more I send out that healing light the stronger my own love and healing becomes.
But I think Its cute how you always call me sir miss. :)

[Jess]

sometimes its more than a tear, and sometimes it can be just a scraggly thread. but they all have their impacts on us. its just how we live with them.

[Ahmad Cox]

Yep. We have to learn to love and heal the scars over time with our hearts and the peace and joy that comes from accepting yourself a whole person full of love and scars
