“Love is not blind. I see with single eye
Your ugliness and other women’s grace.”-Edna St. Vincent Millay
Scars
by Carmen H Gray
There is a collective fascination
Of the facade of the flawless
Maybe because it is a myth
We aim to maintain
The perfect plastic smiles
Parading by us
——–
But what fascinated you
About me
Were the little broken capillaries
The port wine stain
The red blotch
The broken bits
That I wanted to hide
From the made up world
