Of the wound

Over time these wounds we carry

Bled themselves dry

As we took the path

That led towards healing

There is a school of thought that says

Feeling

Will just get you

Into trouble

But those things that cut

Just leave pain

Until the healing

Steals some of the poison away

So listen to what

Your body says friend

For you cannot always live

Cut off in your head

And there is some pain

That must be faced

To deepen the soul in you

That sought its embodiment

Through the hurting

And the bleeding

Of the wound
