A poem named: Scars.

Posted by NyanaCreation - January 4th, 2018


Hey guys, 

so this poem i wrote a little while ago. if you read it you probebly might think there is something wrong but don't worry there is not. this was just a way to express myself and to just write some stuff of like for an instant a past i had or something that happend. this poem i think can relate to everyone because it's about all kind of scars but still that there is a story to them that isn't all that bad and helps you grow and the meaning you can think of (don't worry, if you want to share your thoughts do it i would love to hear about them) anyway i hope you enjoy the poem ^_^

-Scars:

you know when i lift my sleeves you will see nothing.
it's like nothing happend at all.
but beneath the flesh there are scars deeper than you can see.
they are invisible scars of memories from the past.

you know when i lift the pipes of my pants you can see scars. 
you can see little round scars and straight lines.
you can see white and red spots, the ones that never had the chance too heal. 

you know when you see my fingers you see ripped of skin and wounds.
they are small but they are there.
the scars are from pealing of skin because someone doesn't know what to do.
the scars are from someone who is nervous and isn't comfortable then.

you know when you see my face there is a little wound somewhere. 
there is always a tiny little wound. 
i don't hide it like the other scars. 
it's the only one to be seen.

you know when you see my back it is covered in scars. 
people somethimes ask me how i get them and i say nothing and go on.
nobody knows why they are there and nobody will know except for me. 
you know why? because scars are like little stories.

each one tells a story but it's a sad story it has to tell.
people don't want scars because it would make them ugly.
i was scared for scares for a long time 
but when you count them they all have a story.

they can't hide it. they want to tell it. 
but are you ready to tell them there story?

 

I hope you all enjoyed that and got your own opinion about it. again don't be shy i would love to hear what you thought about it ^_^ anyway here is some music i choose for all of you to enjoy:

This is very good. It's sad of course, but it gets the message across clearly. Keep up the good work!

thank you so much that means alot ^_^ and yah it's sad but i guess when writing this i wanted to show that scars are things you can see but also things you can't but it always has a story that makes you stronger as well as if your ready to tell and except the story it holds (sorry i talk alot :p )
and thank you i am glad you like it and i will deventually keep up the work ^_^

first of all that's really deep and second: storys are made to be told so don't be shy and tell anyone that asks your story if you think they deserve to hear it :) hope you have a great day x3

yup it's deep and yah some stories are made to be told to a person you trust but like the poem it are somethimes hiden scars you never want to tell people. but thanks for telling me this ^_^
i hope your having an awesome day as well :3

Good that you had that little "disclaimer" in the start there, so that people won't worry too much.

You and I have sometimes talked about scars.
My opinion: Every scar has an event connected to it.
When the event happens, a story is built. Sometimes it is told to others, sometimes it gets changed

I actually have no reason to be sad or ashamed about the scars I have.
So I tell the true and full story of each scar a person notices. But it is not like this for everyone :(

I have small scars on my fingers and hands from knives, accidents, sharp edges.
Some fading ones on my knees from bathing accidents. A 30+ cm long, curving scar going from below my left shoulder blade, forwards toward the front of my torso, near the armpit. Heart surgery when I was 10 days old. The scar grew with the guy ^^

But your words about scars and their meaning (both symbolical, hidden, and physical meaning) made me think about a text I read over a year ago:

{ You live in a world where each lie creates a scar on the liar's body. The bigger the lie, the deeper and larger the mark. One day, you meet someone that only has one scar; it is the biggest one you have ever seen.

He was a real good guy, through and through. Never met anyone quite like him since, never really expect I will either.

People like Joe don't come around often. Once in a lifetime maybe, if you're lucky.

Almost everyone I've ever met had the tiny silvered papercuts of white-lies on their fingers. It's a price of formalities, a camouflage of sorts- as everyone has a few, some deeper cut than others over the years; opened and reopened time after time. And not just that, but the larger cuts, silvery things on forearms and shins, necks or backs. People lie, it's just the way of things.

Sometimes the pain it worth the deception, the balancing scale plays out mentally before a person's mouth opens.

Joining the force was what I wanted. There was a lie I told myself: A Lie I scratched in deep, over and over again. I wanted to change, I wanted my parents to be proud: All lies, tiny scratching lines on my shoulder to create a strange and deceitful pattern that never seemed to heal completely.

In truth, I joined the force because I had nothing left. I joined as a last ditch effort to save myself from rock bottom. Among the elite, surrounded by the brave and the successful, I simply kept my head down. It felt like being a fox, stuck among a pack of wolves. Just being there in the first place felt like deception.

But then, there was instructor Joe.

I had more scars than most, and that earned little trust- but if people were politely cold with me, they were visibly frigid with Joe. See, he didn't have the traditional marks on his hands, he didn't have cuts and nicks along his arms, his face or neck: At a quick glance you might have thought him the most honest man alive. In fact, at first people did. A man in his fading thirties without scars?

That's like a god-damn unicorn. They're more myth and legend than person- yet there he was. Plain as day.

Everyone liked Joe that first week. Everyone wanted to be on good terms with him- I mean, who wouldn't? In a world of liars and cheats, proof reminded at every twist and turn of the road, who wouldn't want someone they could trust?

Well, that was before he took of his shirt in the locker-room. Before we all saw the hideous mark that covered half his back. One lie, but the most gruesome thing I've ever seen. From his shoulder blade to his ribs, it looked like a crashing comet of red and silvered white. A tiny portion of it just finally healing, a rough tear now recovered again.

It was all the same lie. That's something you can just tell sometimes, just know it. Usually you can tell how many times too, but whatever the number was which he'd said that aloud, I don't know.

He rarely spoke to begin with, issuing the orders with a stern smile, instructing as all the rest did. He was positive, encouraging, truthful: But that scar was on everyone's mind. Deep, dark, and terrible: Someone who could tell a lie like that... Well, there was someone to watch out for. In the end though, it was at the range when things went well and truly sour.

Live-fire runs, we'd done them a thousand times, but that day I guess someone forgot themselves. Maybe they thought too much on what and how and their brain skipped a beat, or maybe they were just careless. Regardless of the reason, a shot fired when it shouldn't have. Brass spit fire, Air swallowed metal, and lead took its first taste of iron, calcium, iron and dirt.
In that order.

We all stopped, eyes wide and watching that kid fall down real slow. First standing, staring with his hand pulling away- not even scared, just shocked. Red, like deep crimson soaking and spreading, he dropped down to his knees. Still, he wasn't even there yet, it hadn't quite processed.

That's when Joe caught him- and all the shouting erupted. The pandemonium, the first real training turned to action kicking in. Cries for "Medic!" and "KIT! Get the kit!" as people ran for the directions they thought mattered.

I was close enough to know that wasn't going to make a difference. Center of mass was what we trained for, the reason was straight and forward: Shoot to kill. Eliminate the target and move on.

So I sat there, weapon heavy in my hands as I watched Joe hold this kid, blood pouring out into the dirt like a faucet, and I listened to him repeat the words that cut deep. Over, and over, and over again.
"Hang on, look at me. You're gonna be alright."
"You're gonna be alright." } (quote finished)

I know scars don't actually work like this :P
But the text was... interesting. Deep. I must admit I didn't get the meaning the first time I read it.
When I read it the 2nd time, I understood all of it. The lie Joe told. His scar.

I love the poem, I think that, as you say, every scar has it's own story, and is beautiful in that way, each mark represents a moment in life, a feeling, etc. :)

it's one of the things that i wanted to come across so good job notising it ^_^
