In the mirror of my thoughts, I see refections of me. Different times and places, Squeezed into one setting. Left are no traces, just a scar. We seem to be able to hide The wounds life can inflect on us And yet keep a smile on our mug. Time has a way of hiding The many episodes of hurts. They just seem to vanish And are not carried for long.

Yes, definitely with regards time & hiding as there are many hurts that I have hidden that only of late seem to be seething out of my being...-e-

You are absolutely right. The mind is quite protective. While we remember vividly tragic events that are branded on our minds as you call them, "scars," but also fades with time and can even become pleasant memories. I think it's our own protection so that the "slings and arrows of outrageous fortune" will not add up to one huge melancholy.

We all look into the mirror of life when we gaze at ourselves. Some interesting lines on our face some troubling and some compassionate. "I look in the mirror in total surprise, at the hair on my shoulders the age in my eyes". (from the song Amanda. May peace and love be always with you George.
