bleedA Poem by Kees KapteynYou cause me pain Through your pain. You react, bleed. I am not without the stain of that blood. I can be defensive, Collect it in a pail And throw it back at you But that won't stop your bleeding. I can dress it in a sterile gauze Or simply allow you to heal. I'm asking you. You allow your wishes only. © 2008 Kees Kapteyn |
