Scars Are the Path To the Soul

Scars are the path to the soul, Road signs written after the wounds occurred, Storm clouds fogging thought process, Actions retell the history of the city in which your heart reside, Words collide and battle intentions in vicious play of truth and morality, Feet of the mind growing tired from running from one point to the next, Smiles blocking the doorways to the unprotected emotions, Eyes leaking the screams of joy or the blood of malencoly, Broken promises are bridges built over past oceans of doubt and failure, While the air of hopefullness tugs upon the reigns of ambition to steer the heart and mind, The bitter sweet wail of insecurity whispers softly the guilt of incompletion into the mouth of the soul, Feeding regret and dismay, The warm embrace of fear covers the mind as cloth, The dim light of accomplishment shines in a dark sea of conformity, Rage boils over as these ingredients are added to the pot of one's spirit, Scars are the path to the soul of a story told but any time still spoken, Cruel clutches of optimism beckons you onward, Irony peaks it's head from behind a corner of chance, Luck draws first and murders the chance of self degradation, Success shares a taunting glance with one's hopes and dreams, Offering a gentle kiss of calm to the mind and laying to bed anxiety, Peace flirts with danger and bachata at the drum of one's heartbeat and the action if thought's tango, Love tugs eagerly at the coattails of one's heart, And plays mahjong with one's emotions, Scars are the path to the soul, Others opinions are the pens that leads all one's dreams for the slaughter.......peace 09/29/18
