Wholeheartedly

You are so much
stronger than suicide

You are so much more
powerful than the cuts on your arm
and so much better than
you believe yourself to be
so much more than your scars

I see you
I see the real you

Darling

Please look me in the eyes
and show me your wounds
whether they be on your flesh
or your mind and your heart

Sweetheart

Think one thing
just one thing
every single day

That you are LOVED
wholeheartedly
without doubt
or fear

You carry my heart
in your heart
as E.E. Cummings wrote

Each one of your scars
now reflects on my skin

This is one of the best poems I have ever read from you Samantha! It is poem of such love and compassion. A declaration of commitment that goes from one heart to the other. I was truly moved by it. Thanks for sharing this.

Those line every man dream from his soul mate. Revealing his wounds to his lover only makes him stronger and ultimate realization of love.

You have to look at it through their eyes though. Did you ever think of it this way sometimes a persons scars define them. They define who they are, they make that person. Whether those scars can be seen or not. Just because a person has scars to show doesn't mean anything. Sometimes scars can be a good thing. But most important thing to know about scars is they prove that everyone has a past.

You don't have to ware scars like a vest everyone has a past the worst scars are on the inside not something to be seen by others but something to carry quietly painfully but with strength we all carry a soul riddled with scars that cant be seen but we sure felt it
