Scars

People have scars

In all sorts of places

Like secret road maps of their personal histories

Diagrams of all their wounds

Most of our wounds heal leaving nothing behind but a memory

But some of them don't

Some wounds we carry with us everywhere and though the cut is long gone the pain still lingers
