love scar

just like any other bruises

it starts with a stinging pain
and gets unbearable on contact
you don’t know whether to bare it all
or to cover it up with a bandage

then as it tries to heal
there are moments you itch and you want to scratch it
but you refrain, because you know it’ll only get worse
especially if you’ve been making progress

but as they say
time heals everything.
pain will disappear.
just be patient and persevere.
you do have natural healing powers.
