Faded Scars

Life is a thing of mixed joys and sorrows.
We touch upon them both through our trek down the rode of life.
We are given a rare chance by god, or by whatever force fills our hearts with life.
The chance to experience the greatest gift we could be given.
Yet the gift has a cost.
For each measure of joy there must be a shadow of sorrow.
For the love in our hearts we must know the hate.
Sometimes the bad outmatches the good,
And in that scenario we are scared, and sometimes scarred, by life.
Yet with love, scars do fade.
