My Sad Poetry
For the contest, Beautiful Scars, sponsor Laura Urbaniak
These scars on my soul are beautiful and painful,
Deep gashes that cannot be seen except in my eyes;
The sorrow I keep within me is dreadful,
My short life has been full of death and whys.
Deep gashes that cannot be seen except in my eyes,
I thought the passage of time would heal the scars;
My short life has been full of death and whys,
At night all my beloved are the sparkling stars.
I thought the passage of time would heal the scars,
I take two white roses to the tomb of my babies;
At night all my beloved are the sparkling stars,
My forever grief is full of long past sweet reveries.
I take two white roses to the tomb of my babies,
Weeping I touch all the names engraved in stone;
My forever grief is full of long past reveries,
Within my soul the forever sorrow still moans.
Weeping I touch all the names engraved in stone,
Yet from this pain something beautiful was to be;
Within my soul the forever sorrows still moan,
And I write from a scarred soul my sad poetry.
Yet from this pain something beautiful was to be,
The sorrow I keep within me is dreadful;
And I write from a scarred soul my sad poetry,
These scars on my soul are beautiful and painful.
