Scars

Beneath the sand I stayed still and calm

Slowly I pulled myself up…I reached for a branch…I gripped it in my hand

The branch was sturdy enough to hold as I made myself stand

I looked up and once again found the strength from the beauty of the stars

Peace fills my heart…I feel love again

The beauty of the night heals the wounds…turns them into scars

Scars that will remind me of the battles I have fought and won

Scars that will heal throughout the night as I wait for the sun
