Battle Scars

Battle Scars

A Poem by Ell(i)e
"

I see you seeing my battle scars.

"

They are the engravings on your badge of surviving a war,

the struggles shown from straying off path,

the lines to a s****y first draft.

They are the disillusioned truth telling you that life is unfair, 

the failed attempts to practicing self care, 

the disbelief of your strength.
