Old wounds take an age to completely heal
then resurface like banished memories,
left with scabs so you can still see and feel
the pride, pleasure and pain of memories.
With scars you wont feel blood seeping away.
If you pick at scabs they will just return.
It is better to forget than let it stay,
then you wouldn't wish old joys to return.
"To remove shrapnel you must take a wound
so let us walk openly into ache"
I was once told and staggered and swooned
and sure enough, I woke without my ache.
If you don't want to hurt, you must know pain,
only with time can your demons be slain.
