Experiences form us
Travels deepen us
Rest raises us
Joy elevates us
Life leaves its mark
The good and the bad
Live leaves its mark
For them both I am glad
Loves expand us
Families lift us
Pains strengthen us
Hurts build us
Life leaves its mark
The good and the bad
Live leaves its mark
For them both I am glad
Fears bore into us
Friends heighten us
Life marks us
Life makes us
Life leaves its mark
The good and the bad
Live leaves its mark
For them both I am glad

Nice, Emma... powerful refrain, so true.
Powerful message, well delivered.
Our experiences are our tatoos -- and depending how we embrace them, some are ugly, some are interesting, some are beautiful.
The repetition makes a strong poem all the stronger ... lovely.
...your take is the truth... you are most of the time correct in this... enjoyed the read... smiles...
Beautiful poem. The repetition is very effective in communicating your message.
