This is inspired by the story told by my friend yesterday. This one’s for you. That must have hurt,
To be reminded of your wounds and broken inner child
by the person you want to be happy with. To heal by fire,
to be broken a thousand times.
Yet, to be mended by sweet words
you have longed to hear. Every day, gasping for air.
Every day, singing words of hope.
Every day, living the scary world of the unknown.
