Unseen Scars |
|
With a smile on my face |
|
And a good word for all |
|
I seem an ordinary person |
|
But... |
|
Unknown by most |
|
I sit in the shadows |
|
And amidst their silence |
|
I embroider with skill |
|
The sutures |
|
Holding my wounds |
|
Closed |
|
Making them |
|
More attractive |
|
Seems to ease |
|
The scaring |
|
Crisscrossing |
|
My soul… |
