Lemon_Soda Say you had a scar that remined you of something you would rather forget. Oppurtunity arrises that said scar could be removed.


Do you do it?

Strideo it isn't the scar on my body that constantly reminds me.

it's the scars on the inside and those are the ones that truly hurt.

unhinged aren't all scars reminders of something you would rather forget?

numerous skinned knees as a kid
stitches
echoing_thought and a boxcutter


however
if i could get rid of the scar tissue
inside my scapula
from that damn accident
i would
in a second

misstree i cherish almost every scar.

almost.

there's one i would have taken away in a heartbeat, an infection and dark_days i'll never forget, no matter how much i'd like to.

the one i hate answering "what's that from?"

times long ago. if you think that's something, you should see the scars on the inside.

twenty-two remove. I couldn't forget what brought them there, or who I was. I'd just rather be able to wear tank tops without someone being concerned that my scars are more recent than they are. And the look, like, "are you suuuuure?" and yes, yes, I'm sure I don't have cutting issues and seriously you are so off target, trying to be sympathetic or whatever. These scars, they are a non-issue.

They're just bothersome.

In_Bloom I'd remove them if I could
I didn't earn them or serve them
They were put upon me in anger
In mockery
It shames me to have to explain them at all
It's not fair
A cut across the face would've been better

daxle a few weeks ago an OB/GYN asked what had happened to my leg. for a split second I tried to remember, and think of what to say. but I quickly remembered it was none of her damn business. so I said "it was a cut", and she said nothing more.
I used to know what they were all from, the scars. I don't think it matters anymore.
