scabs

scabs

A Poem by zeronineight
"

tw: mentions of wounds and bleeding

"

wounds don't heal

when you keep

picking at the scabs,

i don't think

 

the holes in your chest

don't disappear

when they stab it

over and over

 

surely,

there must be a way

to face your demons

and not die every time

 

there must be an option

some sort of out,

some form of distance

to not keep bleeding

 

i'd like a way

to stop bleeding.

there has to be,

somewhere
