awe_to_see_my_scars
Norm
My
life's
work
,
an
unintended
piece
of
art
.
Across
my
chest
and
stomach
stretch
throbbing
reminders
of
my
fiercest enemies. Riddling
my
flesh
are
the
medals
of
a
solider,
long
at
war
with
himself
.
And
each
scar
,
each
medal...
each
reminder's
story
is
much
deeper
now
than
the
pain
I
felt
by
the
wound
inflicted
in
my
past
,
than
the
memories
caused
by
it
.
If
there
is
any
true
meaning
in
my
scars
it
is
only
seen
in
the
awe
in
the
face
of
young
women
who
,
when
off
comes
my
shirt
,
see
the
claws
of
a
great
beast
dragged
across
my
chest
.
Or
in
the
scars
on
my
palms
and
knuckles
that
only
I
can
see
,
those
faded
scars
I
would
rather
forget
but
know
I
never
shall.
