Scar On My Neck

beloved imagery of one as a whole something i will not ever fathom or ever know for as a newborn my eyes were doomed to challenge left eye lost at age two in agony in growth...not know what to do three years ago something appeared uninvited no less behind my ear...not in my heart or breast ignorance served daily knew no better as one day on that very ignorance i choked doctor says its a tumor and it will leave a scar life flashes before me of the last three years...especially a year ago when i flipped my precious...three times my Charlotte...my car the mistakes that i endured the words that i spoke the nights that i was away the cuts that i instigated with a scar on my neck all because i waited inches not bit by bit inches from behind my ear and down it may be raining but i am on my knees begging God...don't let me drown forgive me for my ignorance the wrong...every sin for i knew not where i was... but i confess where i have been
