~This is what forgiveness looks like
Etchings in my skin
To remind me of why I am here
And where I have come from
Why I live & breathe
And still smile through the struggle
How I wouldn't be here
If you didn't
Love at one time
How I can see past your tired eyes
And broken teeth
And know that through your insane mumblings
You are asking for forgiveness
For unconditional love
Even though you feel you don't deserve it
Some days I find it easier to give
But it's always been here
Bubbling under the surface
Of this scarred & tired skin
Waiting for you to ask~
