Scars

If you read the comments, this is a response to Ken's comment.

(This is talking about how our scars can serve as testaments of our past pain so that others can escape the same snares)

I wear these scars
so that you can learn by them.
Precisely incised
by God himself
for you to live
by looking.

And He wished me no harm
He knew
it was you
who in my future
I would save
through providence
of life's etching
on my soul.

So take these scars
revel in them
for an eternity of masses
to be silently rescued
from harm.
