Unwrap
Unwrap the bandages
so I can see the wound,
It needs air to heal.
Let me take a look at it,
the depth of the pain
does not define you.
The wound may have festered,
You may be scarred,
But together we'd find a solution.
It is what sisters stand for,
Lending a helping hand,
To the one who has been badly bruised.
Cast your worries aside,
The path may be narrow and dark,
But you will not walk alone.
The scorn may be inflamed,
the wound may ooze with pus,
It may be unpleasant to behold,
But no injury never healed.
So,unwrap the bandages,
And let me see the wound.
