#HealedScars #Writco #Poem #Prompt

Scars were etched,
across my body and my mind.
I had always searched,
for a dark place to hide.

Afraid of what they might think
or perhaps what they'd say?
So I hid all of my scars
from the light of the day.

Visibly tormented
from the pains in my soul.
Desperately longing
to fill in the holes.

Screaming inside
from the agony and the ache.
I was fairly certain
my heart would forever break.
