The Scars You Bare

Poem is about resilience and inner strength. Scars she bears tell a story of battles fought and won, and her radiant spirit remains undiminished. The poem encourages her to rise above judgment, etc.

The scars you bear is a story that has been told.
Of battles fought, of courage bold.
They etch a map upon your skin,
A testament to strength within.

Feminine you, in every way,
Your spirit shines, a brighter day.
No missing breast, no fallen hair,
Can dim the light that's always there.

For beauty lies not in the form,
But in the soul, weathering the storm.
You are a woman, strong and true,
Your essence radiant, shining through.

Let shallow minds and cruelest eyes,
Be lost in darkness, filled with lies.
Their venom stings, but cannot touch,
The inner fire is loved so much.

So, rise above, with head held high,
Embrace the you, that cannot die.
The most beautiful you, it's plain to see,
A masterpiece of bravery.

For karma's hand, it has its sway,
And those who judge will surely pay.
Shine on, dear one, with grace and might,
Your feminine soul, let it shine bright.

For My Sister Crystal

Author's Note

I wanted this poem celebrates the resilience and inner strength of a woman who has endured hardships and physical changes, such as losing a breast or even hair. I wanted it to emphasize that true beauty lies not in one's appearance but in the soul's strength and courage. Because the scars she bears tell a story of battles fought and won, as her radiant spirit remains undiminished. Even though this poem was written for my sister and I wanted this poem to encourage her to rise above judgment and embrace her true self; keep shining with grace and might. I also wanted to say something to those people who may judge someone they do not know and how they would eventually face the consequences, and karma may just come your way.

Anyways just let me know what you think.
