Linda M. Crate- A Poem

healing

 

I'm the scattered petals of a rose

I'll never go back together yet

you saw beauty in my brokenness -

and it was because of you that I was

sewn back together with a smile;

the scars remain and yet they do not

hinder me and you told me once that it 

would take more than a couple scars 

to robe me of my beauty, you are

the one that makes my heart sing.
