One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make it worth watching.


You may not see my scars
or my battle wounds.
But mine hurt me
just as much as yours hurt you.

These battle wounds
affect everything I do.
Just like yours do to you.

It hurt when I got them.
Just as much,
if not more.
as when you got yours.

I can only ease the pain;
I can never erase.
These wounds aren’t just skin deep
like yours may be.

The battle wounds of mine,
you may not see.
But trust me,
they really do hurt me.

Do not let the things you cannot do interfere with the things that you can do<br /> <br /> No great artist ever sees things as they really are. If he did, he would cease to be an artist.

I must say I enjoyed reading this work. It initially caught my eye which, not as many as I like do. Good work though, definitely keep it up!
