Wounds
Wounded I lie
Wounded by the ravages of time….
By the twists and turns of life….
By the heartless remarks…..
I dressed these wounds everyday
But they never healed
Then one day
A wound said to me,
‘’Leave us alone,
Just let us be…
We give you the essence of living
We help you to feel
We gave you a tender heart’’…..
Now I feel
Wounds never heal
They just gather dust with time
Whenever a storm comes,
Strong winds blow off the dust
And in no time these wounds resurface..
