Raw Wounds 8-28-05

Raw wounds
                                                             Opened once again
                                                             The hurt, the pain
                                                             It’s all there
                                                             For everyone to see
                                                             Memories
                                                             Tearing, slashing
                                                             New scars in my soul
                                                             Never to be forgotten
                                                             I’ve gone through
                                                             All the hurt, the pain
                                                             Just to get where I am
                                                             But now that I know
                                                             I’ll never go through that again
                                                             The wounds will heal someday
                                                             But it will take sometime
                                                             For now they are
                                                             Raw wounds.
