Kiss Your Scars

The reason why,
I kiss your scars,
is neither black nor white.
It's a shade of grey,
for me to say,
I love you.

I kiss your scars,
because everyday,
I see them,
upon my own skin,
and reflected on yours.

A press of my lips,
is for all I can't just say,
but that I want you to understand,
deep down.

I kiss your scars,
because I don't see a "freak",
but instead,
the boy underneath.

I kiss your scars,
because I know the pain,
that put them there.

I'm so proud of your skin,
that found the strength,
to come back together,
and Heal.

I'm so proud of you,
for holding on,
and fighting through,
the dark.

I'll kiss every scar,
for every day,
forever.
If it means,
that you know,
I love you.
