Outline Your Wound
Once, you leave again Are my wounds bigger than me An outline contains
Poet Laureate from Colorado, Andrea Gibson, writes, I've been dancing in the end zone Since you taught me to start breaking Every promise I have made to my pain, taught me my wounds Will never be bigger than I am. Thank goodness for you (From book, You Better Be Lightning) My wounds still feel bigger than my self many times. If I outline them, perhaps I can contain them.
