My Favorite Scars are not
from those who loved me dearest,
nor those who held me closest,
but from the ones who taught me the most.
The ones I left…
The ones who left me…
The ones who built me up
before burning down my world.
Because every scar I carry –
every blemish, bruise, and burn –
is married to a memory,
and linked to a lesson.
You helped me grow,
inspired me,
and called me out
on my bullshit.
Meine Lieblings-Narben,
I hold you close to my heart,
and treasure all that we have shared –
the good times, and the bad.
