Healing Our Personal Wounds

We've all wounds without and within thinking we know how to heal but wounds are not always what they seem for on the surface nothing you can feel Look intently right in so deep take a knife scrape right away clear out whatever hides the source then the wound's clear, no more clay Some of our wounds need real-time whatever their pain patiently wait they've their own way of working by turning the key you've opened the gate These wounds come with a plan sent down to teach us a lesson each of us different ones to learn but it's all part of a greater blessing Some feel only the pain blind to anything good inward thoughts engulf them learning bare firmly nude I've written this based on the quotation by Tracie Peterson (1959- present) Christian fiction writer. "We're all dealing with the wounds we've been given. Some folks just don't know how to let the wounds heal."
