A Scar

Time has eased the hurtful pain,
Eyes do not shed tears.
Solitude has lost its charm,
Mind has shed its fears.

Heart is healed of its deep wound.
But won’t yield the scar.
A treasured gift that was left
By someone so far.

Funny when you're hurt by someone yet you still treasure everything. Martyrdom is another form of love that can only be understood by few people who can truly love. :) Two stanzas that clearly states the true meaning of love. Your poems are so beautiful, Shabeeh. Your are gifted. :)

Your comparison of martyrdom is indeed great. It is the supreme sacrifice of love. Thank you for your very kind words

In life, memories are all we have. To reminisce can recall the pain but can also allow us to cherish the good. Nicely penned.

Time does take away the bitter sting, but the heart remembers....always. Good rhyming and expression of emotion in this one. Lydi**

it is really a good thing when we can get past the hurt and savor the good memories...sometimes it takes a very long period of years to do that.

nicely expressed.
