blemish, n.

The slight acne scars. The penny-sized, penny-shaped birtmark right above your knee. The dot below you shoulder that must have been from when you had chicken pox in third grade. The scratch on your neck - did I do that? This brief transcript of moments, written on the body, is so deeply satisfying to read.

Doldrums, n

The proper verb for depression is sink.
