True Lovers

Those who abandon you for your wounds are not true lovers. 
Your wounds only unveil their brokenness, which they prefer covered. 
Save yourself for the real ones 
who will see your gorgeousness with your cracks 
and show you proudly their darkness and light 
and hold you preciously as you embrace them, 
who will gently caress your scars as you soothingly balm theirs,
with whom loving, nay living is a sweet and salty joy 
of witnessing each other heal from our wounds 
and celebrating our growing into wholeness.
