Creative Practice Day 60

General Summary

My scars feel like they last too long

skin, taught, stretched over a wound

mirroring the heart

A fleeting touch,

burned upon my outer self

a lasting reminder that does not wait for recognition,

deeper wounds are worse,

from longer exposure or repeated injury

carve me like Mars's ravines

As I try to heal, to salve these marks

I watch those around me

getting up and walking away

and they walk away

a separation I cannot bear

for scars are some comfort

Leave me kneeling in the grave

of all I've loved

and lost
