Untended Wound
There's more to hurt
If you look for the marks
The gaps you leave
Yawning chasms
The raw emotion
The fresh bleed of
Fear, rage
Pain
Still where you left it
Infected with inattention
Festering in it's crevice of thought
Pushed aside so you might live
Kept so you might learn death
Before it's claim made
Because you're gonna hurt
And hurt's all the same.
