survivor

I bear the scars
                inside and out
                physical
                mental
                emotional

but as I look out at rain falling on parched ground
marred by jagged cracks in browning lawn
puddling driveway
leaves hanging limpid
dust settling into ground

I see inside
                cracks closing
imperceptively
                dust settling
tiny grain by tiny grain
