Shimmering Scars
Scars will shine in no time, in no time
Soon enough, your joy will be mine
If you don’t accept me or listen to me
If only you would believe in me sincerely
I bled out remorse today
I believe I have lost it all
I do not want to fall away
My heart is pounding in appall
You handed me your useless handkerchief
When I needed your tourniquet of relief
You wrapped me with a blanket of grief
I will wear my hurt like a t-shirt while shaking like a leaf
Tomorrow is just a day away propitiously
Sorrow will fade away into gray clouds vainly
Oddly enough, I can’t remember yesterday
Liberty and love is what I need to be rid of the dismay
Disappear, awful negativity within
Please tell me where you been
I push through the flames fearlessly
I pull away the force of gravity effortlessly
Don’t rip me into small pieces of worthless debris
Hopelessly, I roam too far away from my home
I become numb and alone, yet radiant and free
I am uncertain of what lies ahead in the unknown
I am broken without you fixing every part of my harmless heart…
Now, I am on my own again and I am a wandering pilgrim
I leave words unspoken and fixate on my freefall from the start..
Somehow, you’re a cure that mended me from limb to limb
Come on and be mine
By dawn, you will shine
Get up – you’re fine…
The midnight stars align
Your scars will be no more, so why do you doubt all the more?
They will heal completely, so be absolutely patient
Your wars in mind leave you sore and breathless…you can barely soar
Your time to shine is very soon, dear, so stay resilient
By dusk, you will be made whole in its prime, in its prime
By twilight, you will be a shade of many colors in due time
Your happiness and childlike laughter makes me grin ear to ear once again
Also, vanish away the voices of manipulative lows - now, that’s a win-win
