Things I must remind myself
I am unable to fix what has broken
But these wounds will
Heal if given the time
Hopefully making me stronger
It is impossible to
Give and accept love
If you are afraid of being hurt
Some people can walk away
From the wreckage
Never looking back
My hands gather
All the twisted metal
Fractured bones
Bleeding lacerations
Feverishly looking
For ways to end the pain and
Cauterize the veins
To stop the hemorrhaging
Cradling all these fragile souls
In this crowded heart of mine
My walls have become
So swollen
That I can barely breathe
The bruises on my chest
Are visible to only me
How do I explain
What others
Cannot see
I can only gasp
Yearning
For this breath
To finally fill me.
