bleeding emotions isn’t my fort

but sometimes these wounds of mine

open deep into the bone.

there’s a splinter stuck in my heart.

I can’t pull it out no matter what.

I say, “ God, oh God, help me heal”

All I hear is “healing happens from within.”

Yet here i am suturing scars

While wounds remain untouched, left alone.

As you see, bleeding emotions isn’t my fort

hence the why,

these wounds of mine have yet to kill me

you see
