Gaping

I can't read you anymore.

The words are still too soothing.

Anointing my heart.

Still too raw.

Stinging from salt.

"Time heals all wounds."

There I go again

wishing time away.

It's my curse.

I'll save them though,

for a sunny day.

A day when I can look

at the scar and not bleed.

Filling time tomorrow

so I can cover my wound

from the BandAid I ripped off.

  1. We do that.

    Why I do not know, maybe we become so used to the pain of it all that it becomes a constant companion a timely reminder of what was and could be if we feel weak or slip again.. IDK..
    But I do know this the sun will shine the rain will fall and tides will rise and winds will blow.. But your still be here breathing.. isn't that something at least ?
