Scars

I have a scar on my thumb Shaped like a crescent moon Well, maybe if the moon was drunk. I got it when I was twelve An impatient girl Used a pocketknife to cut cardboard Because scissors just didn't make the cut! And I sliced my thumb. I have a scar on my ear When I was young, A skin tag marred my perfect vision Of a perfect ear. So when I was still young, I got it removed. It's faded now But I can still feel it. I have a scar on my heart From when someone I loved Was ripped away too suddenly, And it left a hole That didn't heal very nicely. You know, They say scar tissue Is much more sensitive Than normal tissue.
