[bodytext] => I noticed an old scar on my hand today I pondered what memory it had to say Did the scar come from my careless youth Or did it come from some other truth It's so hard to go through life without a ding Sometimes the scars are carried within You look in the mirror, most stand out visible But some of the most painful are invisible I can account for most of the scars as I gape It's the one inside I'd most like to escape They are the one that bring me to my knees The ones that make me scream, help please The outside scars tend to sometimes fade away At least their tales might be told with a smile today It's the ones inside that no one must know about They're not the stories that you want to shout out Where they came from, their cause, do I need this It's not like anyone can see or hear what I secretly wish That these scars which tear my soul, cloud my mind Would fade away, be gone, replaced with a better kind You can't wish them away, pretend they never occurred It's hard to put your internal vision into viable words If I face up to the reason and causes they include I can make fear, loneliness, despair from my life exclude There is one person to whom I can tell the stories of the scars He will listen, not offer a criticism, no truth from me barred All that is required of me is I believe in myself and His love I can talk about those scars and stories to God above.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
