Scars are Forever

Wounds fade in the quiet nights but

the scar's whisper forever remains.

Time mends the broken parts,

but the silent echoes of past pains

imprints and remains in the corners of smiles.

Healing is a slow dance with shadows

where hidden scars are a road map of survival.

The traumas may find a place to rest but the scars although hidden are here stay.

Reminders of the strength it took

To face the days.
