I don't like a person
Without scars
I feel like they're empty,
Missing something

I feel like a person
Without scars
Has nothing memorable
To share,
To tell

I feel like a person
Without scars
Hasn't yet learned how
To smile,
Breathe,
Live

I feel like a person
Without scars
Doesn't know how to handle life
Because
Life hasn't handled them.
Just thoughts. I'm getting cuts and scrapes and little gouges all over from my puppy, and it makes me smile because they'll be things to talk about later. I've always admired scars. To me each one says that a person has kept on living. In my mind scars make you strong.

Not sure where to categorize this. Anyone thinking it could fit somewhere else better is encouraged to let me know.
