You may never see who I am

You may never see who I am

 

We are many things and many people as we learn and grow.

Many paths lead to many discoveries, some we have always known.

 

What we feel inside, we must not hide.

But for some of us the pain is too much to show.

 

How can I show you the things that haunt me?

How can I share when I do not feel like healing?

 

A pain inside is the easiest to hide.

It leaves not a single scar to be seen.

 

The scars inside are the ones that never heal.

 

You must look past my scars; I will show them to no one.

These are the things that make who I am.

 

Love me for my faults.

Do not pity me for my scars.

Very wise words. Scars are part of who we are whether they are physical or emotional. They must be accepted by those who want to be part of our lives. One small correction...I think you wanted to say "haunt" and not "hunt" in this line. "How can I show you the things that hunt me?" A powerful write. Lydi*

Thank you. I will change that right away.

Great! I knew it was only a typo.

[ron]

Thank you for catching it.

I really like this one Ron. Our past does make us who were are, every wound and scar included.

Love me for my faults, do not pity me for my scars. A true love never would. Very nice.

It is difficult to move on, but we are who we are. When we are able to accept the pain and the scars we are able to ask those who know us to do the same. Though not all shall understand, we are at least being honest by admitting we have them. It is a choice another must make, but at least they know what you have endured, and who you really are!
Wise words Ron!

With words like that she should love you and forget the scars of the past. Like you have said we have to learn and grow...Splendid...:)
