Silent Scars

Silent Scars are not visible to one's bare eyes
that no one can't see or feel.

Trapped by these mentally, physically carrying
the above  mentioned unseen adversity. 

Specific experiences shared contrasting one's 
strength with armor and a smile.

Despite  that one's tongue often reminds me of my shared experiences of Silent Scars.

The weight I carried solo mentally,  physically had
nearly retained me as a prisoner. 

Finally, I'm breaking free voluntarily from these
chains of oppression.
