The Scar

She would have been beautiful without the scar
that lay across her cheek.
It was large and white and took over the entire right side of her face.
But with the scar she was breathtaking.

She wore it with such grace.
I wanted to lay a kiss on it.

I had scars too...they just weren't as visible.

My friend scoffed and told me I was stupid
for wanting her.

He sees people with his eyes.

I look at the world with my heart.
