Those Scars


Those Scars

From His head to His toes

Covering His body

Gifts that cannot be returned

 

Those Scars

Making Him look rough

But still bieng tender-hearted

With the gentlest touch

 

Those Scars

Given to Him because of our sins

Taken without a complaint

Taken with a smile on his face

 

Those Scars

A testament to His life

Those nails through His hands

The sound of the whip

Hearing His cry through generations

He loved us so much

That he allowed himself to die and carry

 

Those Scars

Well first things first, I suffer from crazy and weird syndrome. Its self-inflicted. I enjoy Poetry very much and to me Poetry is more than just words, its an Idea, and according to V from V For Vendetta "Idea's are bulletproof." I have always enjoyed things that bring inspiration to me and others and Poetry is just that. I love making new friends. So here is my email: [email protected]. And also if you want to find me on Facebook: Cody Koehn. Send me a message or friend me on Facebook. If you have any questions on my style of writing and/or I am very open to suggestions on how to improve my poetry. Thank you for reading and I hope to hear from some of you guys. And feel free to give me any feedback on my poems. Till then, keep writing your own story guys!
