"Sometimes we tend to be in despair when the person we love leaves us, but the truth is, it's not our loss, but theirs, for they left the only person who wouldn't give up on them."

The wounds once covered in blood,
now faded into scars.
Tears that used to flood,
Are now dried up inside.
The gashes within,
Now stitched up, ready to heal.
The once worn frown,
Turns to a smile.

Pretty, meaning packed into short poem! Nicely done, it's easy to write a long poem where you can go on and on but what most people don't know is that it's harder to write a short poem full of emotion and meaning!!!! My dad always says that! Ps. Please check out my work if you get the chance! Thx. =D
