I see the scars that tell the tale
Of ancient gashes running deep
Into your heart—
They speak of how a friendship failed,
They speak of all the tears you weep
This very day.

I can’t remove the ugly scars,
I can’t dismiss the tears you cry
From deep within—
But I will reach you where you are;
The healing needed I’ll supply
Through the power of love.

I do believe in the power of love but perhaps love doesn't believe that we believe - must be a life thing. Enjoyed the read.

I really enjoyed the way you describe what love could be if one truly believes.

We all need another who can do this for us
as well as the strength and kindness to do
it ourselves.
