Ripping old wounds
Only to reveal the infection
Festering in your thoughts
And spreading to your soul
Unrecognized through the haze
Brought by the darkness
Devouring you from the inside out
But through the chasm
Light finally breaks in
Chasing the ghosts away
Making way for healing
And breaking free from chains
Covered wounds now uncovered
Left bare so others may judge
May empathize
But mostly so that this time
They may heal properly.
