Scars - The things we bare - 1. Scars - The Things We Bare
A single poem about the abuse a child faces. The poem is a series of Haikus.
The boy cowers in
his skin as the belt sings in
the air above. Smack!
Red welts appear on
snowy white skin. The pain is
blazing and sharp. Tears.
The words echo in
his head forever. Stupid,
useless, lazy, boy.
A boy grows to be
a man. Some things are never
forgotten. Mental scars.
Comments are always welcomed on any of my work. I will do the best to answer them all. Wondering if it might be easier to simply create a book called Poetry and then just add these poems to it as I finish or find them among my papers.
