Battle Scars ~ 16 April 2013

These Battle Scars
dont look like they are fading
as they sit on the skin
of a damaged girl.
And everytime she looks
in the mirror
they are the first thing
she see's.
These Battle Scars
aren't ever going away
as they hide under the skin
of a broken boy,
Everytime a door slams
or someone raises a voice,
he flashes back to the days
when a family was broken
and fought day after day
only to stay together.
These Battle Scars
fill us with pain
as they try hard not to fade.
And even if we don't see them now,
we all have them.
And one day we all look
down and say
These Battle Scars
will start fading.
