Time Heals Nothing

"You know what happens to scar tissue. It's the strongest part of your skin.” - Michael R. Mantell

Time Heals Nothing

All it does is leave you this empty blank space to ponder

What would’ve of happened if it never happened at all

The final event to end everything

 

Even though you want to forget

The memories still haunts you

Creep up on you when you least expect it

Then just to let you have a break down afterward

 

Then there are the memories you want to keep

To hold tight and never let go

But seem to always float away when you let your mind wander off of them

They never fully return and there’s always a missing piece

 

The beginning is like getting stabbed

The dagger plunges into your skin

Deep red crimson ribbons spill out, cutting through muscles and veins

Extreme pain slithers through, this is the worst part

 

Then the dagger is out

Even though the bleeding has stop and you’ve cleaned it out the best you can

There is no more pain and it heals slightly, but a mark is still there to proved it happened

The wound is never fully healed back to its original state

 

Time Heals Nothing

It’s just an empty space to ponder

Where bad memories stick and good float away

And where the dagger use to be and where a scar still is

Nice poem! This is seomething I've thought about so often too. Time heals nothing...only the things that time brings do.
