Not All Scars Are Wounded

By David Gilbert

Not All Scars Are Wounded centers the good and bad of human connectionnot only with those around us but just as important within ourselves. At its heart, each poem shares the internal yet eternal conflict between our wanting for everything and our not wanting for anything. In other books, love and heartbreak become poetic themes, revealing how to find oneself and becoming a better person. However, in Not All Scars Are Wounded, these themes tear and unravel into threads to give a better look at who we are and what makes that special to us.
