POEM: UNSEEN SCARS

Unseen Scars

There they lie
Buried deep in my heart
Yet incessantly stirred
By each passing nudge
Each fleeting breath
A reminder of life
Yet unlived
Waiting for an embrace

Fresh yearnings sprout
As growing seedlings
Tender and innocent
Open to exploitation

Pains of yesterday
A refuge for today
A custodian of innocence
A teacher of all things
Yet unlearned
And unspoken.
