What a painfully beautiful poem!! It really gets inside of you!!
I love all of it so much, but this part is so next level to me!!
"These scars beneath my skin tell a story,
of a soul that has been mined like a quarry"
I mean I felt that on every level...its layered and deep!!
The musical paring you chose was epic!! I have never heard that song before but I absolutely love it!! It fit like a glove with the poem!! Its such a good tune!!
So well written, so well done and so well put together 💓💓💓
I’m so glad it resonated with you, Tara! I was also really proud of that line you picked out. I feel like things like trauma take a piece of us, so the mine/quarry metaphor seemed appropriate.
Thank you for checking out the musical pairing as well! I always put a lot of thought into those, so I appreciate you checking it out. 😁😁😁
Scars earned.
