Poems

Visibly hidden
I was given a gift; the gift of guilt.
To use freely and often.
I
did
. I
do
.
A member of the club that no one wants to join.
My gift is pretty
Dependent on words.
On thoughts.
On
her
,
him
,
them
.
On sticking plasters carefully stretched
Over
still weeping wounds
.
Quiet now.
Yet visibly hidden
.
