Let It Bleed

all it took was one person to uncover my wounds "let it bleed" she says... all the things i covered up all the bruises and the cuts its time to let it bleed... my soul wrapped in bandages a heart thats inflammed its time to let it bleed... so many secreats i kept all the men that crept its time to let it bleed... the child that could have been the nightmares that began its time to let it bleed... since my words are like vapor my tears and ink hit the paper its time to let it bleed...

Writing helps. Putting down and letting it go helps to heal. Keep the magical pen flowing. Sara
