Poems
Nov 2017
Healing isn't easy
Healing isn't easy
It's not quick
It's a process
Like stitches
Bedded into one's arm
Once out, it stings like hell
But you can breathe again
But sometimes
Infections brew
And the pain electrifies
It pulsates through your body
And you have to start again
And sometimes you'll
Find away around your scar
You'll touch it
And it will bleed
And it will burn
But one day
One day it won't hurt anymore
However, that scar still stays with you
It's part of you now
The pain that caused it
The frustration of it
It's still there
And it'll stay with you
But remember,
You healed.
