As liquid regret drips down your face,
I ask you to kiss your scars goodnight,
Because one day, I promise they will fade into yesterday,
And be erased for the next tomorrow.

Your most frightening nightmares could transform
Into your most glorious daydream.
Remember to say goodbye to your tears,
Because once they leave,
It will be quite a while before they do return.

Darling, lift your sleeves,
And show the world that what was once hidden
Behind fear and lost emotions,
Is now exposed and ready to flee from your
Skin.

I ask you to kiss your scars goodnight,
Because one day…
Today…
I promise, they will fade into yesterday…

And be erased into eternal tomorrows.
A quick little poem I wrote...
Decided to write something happy :)

I really like this poem. I feel it speaks to the reader on emotional levels, whether you can relate to it or not. I like how it's structured, but mostly I just like the feel of it. It flows smoothly, yet the deeper meaning still gets across. I like how, even if you can't relate to it exactly, it's still about leaving the bad in your past behind, something that I have a difficulty doing. It reminds me of a certain band's lyrics, the style and the words are a bit similar. This is a job well done. Keep up the good work.
