Ache

Given time, an ache will go to sleep
But from time to time may creep 
In course of time, will yield
But with a slight scratch, may bleed

Yes, an ache in the heart even though it seems to be healed can bleed again. I am glad that I chose to read this one today. Thanks for sharing and for stopping by my page. Sara
