Words, The Healer
Emotions
Run wild inside my mind
My tiny brain,
Suffering, Stranded.
Alone.
I see it, the light
It approaches
Soon, ever so soon
Growing closer.
But what? Light, it is not.
These words,
Spread across the page.
Letter by letter they bleed
They bleed with the blood
Of the broken, the damned.
Healing.
Always, healing.
Words spread across,
The wounds upon
My wrists.
My wrists, broken.
Years of torment, sorrow.
Agony, slowly trembling in the dark,
Dark corners of the mind.
Words spreading,
Spreading slowly.
Slowly healing.
My saviour.
Blood healing the wounds,
Words spilt from the blood.
The blood of the broken,
And the freshly awakened.
