Scars: a mark left on the skin or body or soul. Scars tell a story of when life tried to knock us down but failed. They are the stories of heartbreak and the determination to rise above what we thought would hold us captive. Beauty in the Scars by Steve Aluoch showcases what happens when one navigates the messiness of heartbreak, fights through the uncertainty in the middle, and urges you to see the beauty in your story, the beauty in your scars. Focusing on the in-between feelings that bloom in the light of love lost and the relearning of the person beneath the scars, Beauty in the Scars is centered on healing. You'll feel and embrace your own experiences as you journey through these verses, and find that the power of your heart can illuminate the beauty in your scars.
