There is risk in a wound that keeps reopening—
for not every scar is meant to bleed again,
and not all pain can be endured
If being touched twice.

I once believed that when you fall and bleed,
You simply rise and continue to walk.

But I’ve learned that even now,
I am walking and the bleeding has stopped.
The injuries remain torn open.
All because healing never came

Recovery never came easily to me-
Unless the flesh detaches from the soul.

Now, for how long can I tolerate it ?
Does pain ever truly become bearable?
Though, it can grow beyond endurance
Leaving even the deepest parts severed within.
