Unseen Scars

By Katie Pope

By Katie PopePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Unseen scars leaving their mark,

A path never traveled,

Yet leaving its mark.

Never wanting to tell,

Yet always coming to light,

Bring the unseen scars to,

The surface of this life.

Anger and shame at the door,

Of the love never thought of.

Pain and loss seating at our feet,

waiting to be explored.

Unseen scars leaving their mark.

Lies told because one,

Never wanting to tell about the unseen scars

buried so deep within.

Love that brings about weakness,

Never seen yet always felt!

Never knowing what one has,

Seen and felt, a loss, anger, shame,

The unseen scars leaving their mark!

A path never traveled,

Yet touched because of the unseen scars!

Pain that never should have been,

Yet pain that left the unseen scars,

Marking this life!
