Renewed woundsA Poem by Rida Sarwar
The wounds heal yet they are scratched again
Blood falls yet its like ink on a paper
The more it drops the more satisfying it gets
Tears of agony wet my cheeks
Those muffled cries of surrender
Those slow drugs, damn they just won't work
the pain won't subside
The winter is harsh on me this time
More than before, more cruel than it was ever before
Misery demands company
Pain demands to be felt
But this life! It demands to be lived
It demands struggle! it demands to be fought for
Yet the last ounce of desire to live it has drained out of me
Just like the rainbow that has lost its colours
Just like a bird that lost its wings
More like a demon damned to live.
