Scared from within

***She walked by daily*** ***Head covered and bowed*** ***Strides timid but sure*** ***I wondered endlessly,*** ***How ugly the scars she hid were*** ***And how she got them*** ***So I got closer*** ***Willing her to show them to me*** ***To trust me*** ***But I could never have been prepared*** ***For the truth I uncovered*** ***You see, hers was the fairest face of all*** ***She had no visible scars to hide*** ***She only covered and hid herself*** ***For fear that her damaged soul would be seen*** ***And her battered spirit would be further broken*** ***Those scars,*** ***They were the ugliest*** ***They were on the inside*** ***And her words were*** ***'A souvenir from love'*** ***With a smile that made my heart*** ***Even as her tears, broke it***
