Scars

Scars on the outside we can see so easily Scars on the inside cause much more injury Scars on the outside we can fix with surgery Scars on the inside we suffer silently Scars on the outside are a testimony to our pain Scars on the inside we suffer alone in vane Scars on the outside are seen by all who play the game Scars on the inside allow the inflictor to feel no shame Scars on the outside demand we tell a story Scars on the inside are void of any glory Scars on the outside we wear like medals on our skin Scars on the inside only fester from within We all wear scars, some inside and some out We all wear scars, of that fact there is no doubt Some of our scars we wear in perfect symmetry Most of our scars are where no one else can see

That is so true. Emotional scars are the worse and are never seen. A very nice write.
