• Knives cut deep wounds
    These heal
    What happens when the blade
    Slips to far
    Red pours from the vain
    Never stopping
    Thread keeps it closed
    The blood thickens
    Over time the thread is taken out
    A scar
    Left by the knife
    Always there in the skin
    In your mind
    Today’s wound
    From thoughtless acts
    Will shed no blood
    But leaves scars much deeper
    Wounds only left
    By the sharp edge
    Of sharp words
    Wounds that are never seen by the outside
    Left with infection for eternity
