Scars and Wounds

SCARS AND WOUNDS Scars and wounds embedded externally and internally Over my body and throughout my soul Authenticating me into my natural being Causing so much pain and pleasure As I look into this reflection in the mirror Its the transformation of this person I am visually seeing Scars and wounds Its the gain from the pain Its the pleasure causing great deals of measure I could be licking my wounds wearing them proudly as badges, my stripes of honor To remind and motivate me on futher away from this life I left behind me Or I can continue to bleed staying stagnant in my past Which vainly amounts to nothing and I will never last I’ll just be repeeling the scabs to relive and resurface the bloody trauma of the pain I once had Continuously reflecting leaving me in my mess, feeling depressed Or I can just move on ahead and considerate as one of life experienced tests Nevertheless Im grateful to remain sane, living and blessed Im leaving it all up to “GOD” to handle the rest SCARS AND WOUNDS
