SCARS

SCARS
 
Scars are simply life's tattoos
ones we rarely choose
like artists' ink, each tells a tale
laid out on flesh for all to see
paid with pain as currency
come here and see
what fate has so far offered me
in every shape and size, design
upon our flesh, our soul, our mind
etched into every thought we think
unseen except through artist's ink
We're each given a scar upon our belly
an initiation badge for enduring our birth
Now earn your scars before you're set in a scar
dug deep in the belly of earth
