dimpled red
scars hidden by the flame [wip]

Avg Rating: (2)

                   there's a scar
                   that has no memory
                   of what the hurt was done
                   or pain that didn't bleed
                   before I knew of me
                   it paints a darker
                   blush across my skin
                   used to be my focus
                   everytime
                   I lingered
                   was the proof
                   of (imperfection)
                   my mystery

                   never thought
                   of battles won (or lost)
                   without a sword to wield
                   only love was raised
                   no scars
                   were burned
                   to what could never be
                   (remembered)
                   this confession
                   hides a hurt
                   no one can see

                   from a loving hand
                   another cut
                   much deeper than
                   was love that held
                   (it open)

                   fingers trace
                   the dimpled red
                   sensitive to touch
                   (longing numb
                   as flame chased hot
                   across the snow)
                   was nothing
                   said of me
                   witness to the wound(ed soul)
                   others might have seen
                   words that left their mark
                   before the rest
                   was known

                   the truth remains
                   (in places you can't see)
                   reminders need not
                   wear the scars
                   of love
