Scars

Scars

A Poem by Curtis.Lenker

I am made of scars 
some seen by many people 
others seen only by me 
hiding behind all of them 
building walls around my heart 
not letting anyone knock them down 
I heard pain makes us stronger 
yet the opposite is true for me 
my scars make who I am 
some caused by old loves others
by my old friend the razor blade 
scars are what I am made of 
in this abyss of life I sink farther 
into the darkness causing my soul
to break apart piece by piece
some I do not feel others 
I like to rub on dark and stormy nights 
I feel like a nobody among the masses 
scars seem to be my only friends 
bringing me comfort and pleasure 
scars are what I have become 
never to return to normal again

You are beautiful just the way you are and we need to be broken to become stronger and it makes us who we are each scar and mark has a story to tell..the cracks allow the light to get in...you are not made to fit in but stand out ...hold that head high and look how far you have come ...don’t give up don’t hide away use the pain to pave the way to a better you and a better life..the best is yet to come ...🌹
