Open Wounds
Open wounds on naïve flesh
Open wounds on a broken heart
Open wounds on a dying soul
Open wounds of hate
Open wounds of misunderstanding
Open wounds of neglect
Blood gushes through the open wounds
Trying to heal itself
Wounds made by those that were meant to love
Wounds made by those who did not understand
Wounds made by hate and envy
Raw, open, bloody and gory
Angry and sad
A sacrifice to the unknown force.
Blood and tears is all it wants
Open wounds that never healed
Open wounds that no one ever saw
