Scars are beautiful
As each purple line is hidden
From questioning stares and hurtful remarks
To be unspoken of and covered in shame
as if no one has kissed each pain one by one
Like you've never been told they're the beauty of your pain
A beauty to be loved and cared for
You hide them as if I would love any less
They are not to be hidden but to be admired
As each scar is kissed and warmed
Know your scars are beautiful
