Of yours
Anymore
No letters
Tickets
Or cards
But I do have scars
And memories
That spill out
Like photos
From a billfold
Not intended
To keep them
And so
They become
Inconvenient
Snapshots
of what we were
And I would
toss them too
on the fire
but it’s never up to you
what you
remember
afterwards
when all the struggle is through
And Fate has dealt
all the cards
I’d like to forget you too…
But I still have scars.
Jaded, faded, scarred, and scared and that is the result of love but fortunately...the flower blooms in Spring great poem that captures it @johnjgeddes

*Snaps fingers in quick succession * very deep. As are the scars, some of them, the pain may go away but the damage caused still affects you.

Great! We forget, we stop fighting and we at last win the battle but the scar won't let go. They remain with us and reminds us of our yesterdays

Sometimes I feel like love is the cruelest emotion that ever existed.
Sometimes you want to forget or hate them but you just cant.
The scars never never goes away.
and deep down in our heart exists all the people that we ever ever loved. even if we leave or they left, they are still down down there.
Yikes!
hmmm- "Scars"

Powerful and intimate truths penned so well. This poem made me a bit sad, but it also gave me a moment to reflect on how scars can also strengthen. Superb. :)

Sometimes the hardest thing to do is invest in someone else. Scars remain when we get hurt but they become a part of us. Great work!
Keep them coming :)

Scares are tough skin. When I was a child my family had friends, Karen and John Geddes. Do you know them? They were in Orono, Ontario. It's a long shot but I think I'll take it. :)
