Through Wounds

Contributor: Lyla Sommersby

- -
Try
to justify
cruel acts
hide behind
warm words
hide the ice
couch the cruelty
the blade
the blood
that still pools
still stains the steel.

The wound
still stirs
still connects
me
and you

always only
connects me
and you

always and only
through wounds.
