Scars Are Beautiful
In the awe hours of the night,
i sat on my favorite sofa,
looking from a far, as it
rained cats and dogs,
i couldn’t help but admire
the scenery up close.
My head started to fill heavy,
as i drowned in my own thoughts,
trying to figure out how to
forgive and forget,
for i was tired of imprisoning myself
with hate, i needed to change.
Even though, they continuously
killed me, i still rose like a phoenix
for i have more than nine lives,
and their cruelty will never get to me,
the scars will be a reminder
of the strength i gained, but i will focus
more on the silver lining, positivism
will always surpass negativity.
People might hurt you but you should learn how to forgive and forget. You are the only one that can control your thoughts. Fill your head with positive thoughts always…….

Was your use of blank space in the poem by design, like scars on a skin of text? That’s brilliant!
