83. Heal
Invisible wounds
That ache,
Their pain
Emotional
Not physical,
Sore and itching
In the aftermath
Of hurt.
Irritated
I do not
Leave them be
But niggle
At the scabs
And so the
Scars remain.
Some injuries
Mark me as
Victim of
Others’ acts
Intentional
And inadvertent;
With time
My anger fades
Or I forget,
And throbbing fades.
But some are
Self-inflicted:
Mistakes and
Erring judgements,
The pangs of regrets
And foolishness.
These cut deeper
And hurt longer
Since in
Self-recrimination
I will not
Let them heal.
