Scars Haikus 7.0
(i) Damage Done
some scars do not heal
the mental scars run so deep
The damage is done
(ii) Sealed With a Kiss
self made tapestry
there's too many scars to count
they need kissed better
(iii) Beauty
I love all of you
scars can sure be beautiful
when they are on you
(iv) Growing Gracefully
scars are as life lines
proves that a life has been lived
a lot like wrinkles
(v) Winning
deep scars of battle
they can only really heal
when the war is won
(vi) Stop!
the scars spelled out "stop"
it's so true; words can cut deep
I need you to stop!
(vii) It's Ok To Fight
abusers cause cuts
with every scar they win
fight back: Scar their mind

Thank you my friend - they should be treated as badges of honour both those on the outside and also the invisible ones :-))))

Deep and delivered with power.
Scars carry stories and memories but they do not define who you are, they do not stop you making more or better memories.
Love this :)

thank you Sophie you are so right with your wise words - I view scars as reminders especially when creating or trying to create new positive experiences :-)))))))))))))))))))))))
