Poem Artwork

Sickened by the requisite hours in therapy

Cupping the coal of grief in burned hands
as if the soul has already turned to ash

Festering

Burning


Odors masked by white lies

Strangers pick at emotional scars
because it’s good to bleed

Interrupting the healing process
leaving infection underneath

No teachers

No mentors

To scratch the surface

No muses

No heroes

Our legacy discharged

Itch for reprieve
Insatiate torment

Regret and blame
Rise like yeast

Spoils of life
Taken for granted

Listen

Learn

Silence the salve

Quite
Hear yourself

Another great write Deborah that probes and picks at your pain and offers the agony you feel up to us almost like a penance to share with your fellow writers alone. Strong write dear friend.
