is it a wound or a scar – v2

I can relate, I probably have

this situation, open wounds

masking as scar tissue;

it may seem obvious

the way of our flesh

the wounds open, oozing,

the scars as smooth as glass;

but within our spirits

though forgiveness

may have left our lips

forgiveness may have been spoken

we may have repented of the past;

but the wound still may be open.

We must all ask,

in our prayers, in the quiet,

is it a wound or a scar?

We will only know in the connection

when the rubber hits the road

and we see the “guilty” party.
