the holes in your soul are
filled by the tears that fell
for lessons learned long ago.
the body’s basic desire for healing
creates a hammock for new hearts
craving to become full.
you stand here, now
cleansed by the fires
of a hell that you didn’t ask for —
burning with the best of us.

the holes in your soul are

for lessons learned long ago.
the body’s basic desire for healing
creates a hammock for new hearts
craving to become full.
you stand here, now
cleansed by the fires
of a hell that you didn’t ask for —
burning with the best of us.
