Notes About The Poem

Healing Poetry Contest, Sponsor - Kai Michael Neumann. Date written: 02/17/2025

To Comfort You


           open the floodgates
 of hurt; just let your wound bleed
      so I'll be the healing balm
      soothing away the hurting

        yes, hold nothing back.
      permit all your emotions;
    rivulets of tears you'd shed
      i promise to wipe away.
