The marks upon my hand Tell a grim and lowly tale A tale of heartache and sorrow The tale of a lonely shadow Who no woman would love I stand in judgement Knowing my true destiny A destiny of loneliness and sorrow Waiting patiently for the verdict The verdict for crimes unknown The marks, my battle scars Born of a cold and lonely blade With each passing motion Reliving each awful moment The depression showing its might Watching as the pale canvas Slowly running over red The lines coming more into view I wipe away the vision of pain and suffering Only to watch it return Over time, the lines will fade But soon they will return As the birds return home in summertime So will these marks of sadness And they will never leave I hope that one day soon They will never return So I may find peace knowing That the sadness will not succeed me That my heart and hand will show no scars Fear destroys the mind, depression destroys the soul... only love and compassion may save you from death. |

If I could only tell you how many times I have been there...and if you could only see the "tracks of my fears." I try not to look any more, but still they are there after all these years. this is wonderfully written thank you for a good morning read with my coffee...a dose of my own reality with a bit of cream this morning!

I too have battle scars, as I am sure alot of us do. Some may be in many different sizes, locations, and colors. But yet we still have them. You write wonderfully and I too hope one day the scars fade away for you. Everyone deserves that. Good luck, my Friend! Mags The hardest thing to do is watch someone you love, love someone else! |
