Scars

Scars

I woke up this morning and I realized,
that the scars I created when I was unsupervised,
will be there even when I am older,
and disapproval is something I'll have to shoulder 
until there's nobody left to remember,
marks I left when my mind was dark as december.

But that won't happen in a long time 
so now I'm trying to cover what they call a crime,
with watches, bracelets and bands,
until there comes a person who understands.

Hey MOUSEY!!....there is a feeling of release or healing running through this piece.............which by the way is beautifully conveyed........but in covering the scars one not only halts the healing.....but ultimately makes it worse.......the depression created in dealing with a pressure cooker (hiding scars) can conquer the soul.....the author makes a VERY interesting point!!...and writing about it is a VERY healthy approach!!.......ALL STARS!!....well penned dear poet sister!!.......LOVE & ROCKETS!!.....T xo  : )
