Inner Scars
by Marja Sas, November 3rd, 2020
While creating these cute little bears Emotions and memories pass by It reminds me of the scars of life We all have and know them I do I have scars from surgery And I have scars that no one can see My inner scars Only I know they are there And my loved ones
Memories of those inner scars Let themselves be felt This creating process is more than making these cute little bears It is a journey inside to the scars I have Knowing that I learned to take care of them Giving my love and care Just in what they need Sometimes there is just a memory A memory that makes me smile Or a memory that makes me cry
The memories just come With a song I hear A person I see A program I watch A story I read A feeling I feel Creating a cute little bear I have learned to take care of my inner scars And I am still learning I never know when the memories come Or what feelings come with those memories A tender smile Or a tear
| What I do know Is to take care of what I feel To take care of my inner scars By being tender to myself Loving myself Embracing myself Letting me be with what is And with what want to be felt Sometimes just in silence Sometimes sharing with a loved one Sometimes with tears .. and .. knowing I can take care Take care of my inner scars
My inner scars Are connected with love Where there is love There is loss There are scars And each scar Asks something from me It needs special care and love from me Those scars are a part of me They can be touched Now and then By a word A sound A smell A song And with a tear Or a tender smile I remember And take care of my inner scars So little bears With your cute loving faces Thank you for reminding me And .. For being here with me!! |
