spring

the air is warming up 
the sun is getting hotter
the grass and leaves shine a vivid green
the animals come out, 
and the urge to make bigger
scars on my body returns.

This is really touching, Ava. The last line is a powerful and unexpected turn. It adds so much weight to the title that it compels a deeper reading of it. Really well done.
