Mourning

Mourning

A Poem by steppenwolf
"

sad goodbye

"

 

Mourning

The open wound stretches wide and deep

Sleep

Doesn’t come

Blood seeps through the bandage

And the skin is hot

Not

Like a glowing sun tan

But something worse.

Bar the door

But the curse walks through it

Silently infecting

This girl’s wound/world.

Infecting, rejecting, correcting her clumsy ways

But

 Aiming, reclaiming her soul? In time, it will be days.

Praise the sun

Gaze at the moon

And take your medicine from an heirloom spoon.
