My Beautiful Scar

"MY B EAUTIFUL SCAR IS MY ADDICTION AND MY FAITH IS A HEALING REMINDER" Before the days of yesterday’s I ran to the hills of high, Even though I lost MY way I grew my BEAUTIFUL wings to fly And inside my soul a SCAR that left a mark so very rare, Utopia had begun and I realized everyone does care. The beauty of a mistake IS to learn from its regret, Internal remorse, though rough at times, I never shall forget. Forgiveness and MY atonement run through my crimson veins, Until I ended my ADDICTION my scars would have remained. Lamentation within my hearts creation caused a blemish, So, when I got sober AND I decided that in my life I shall relish. Contingent upon my future decisions would MY fate be, And shining FAITH upon the flaw in my soul IS where you’ll find me. Reasons are determination and A new HEALING is shown today, Scars from wounds are a REMINDER that I finally found my way. MESSAGE IN AN ACROSTIC - Poetry Contest January 15, 2017
