It's The Scars I Poem by Keitumetse Mokhohlane

It's the scars I

It's the scars...
Scars that caused you pain,
Tears fell, like rain
Yet in mind, you remained sane
You gave yourself power;
Power that left you weak,
Power that made you sick
Thee power, that broke you into pieces
All went in different directions
You were unable
Unable to control your emotions
Emotions, that were never stable
You were trustful, found trustworthy
Told the truth, truthfully
But...; it's the scars
Scars that blew your truthfulness to mars
You left it all up to fate,
At no given date,
Kindness got you delayed,
Thought they'd be your soulmate...
It's the ignorance that taught you stupidity,
It's the scars that gave you an opportunity,
It's life, that granted you on it's continuity,
It's the pain that left you empty...
