The Wound That Heals

(Image Source: http://webdesignfan.com)


The wound that heals
Loses it's essence
Over the course of time
As fading memories
Give way to dreams anew
'Cause pain inflicted in the past
Are now lost
Somewhere in my History book
I turn the pages
And recollect the sight
Of endless passion
Leading to cruel cries
That wake up the dead
From their lazy graves.

The wound that heals
Is a tribute to the times
Of abundant smiles and scarce tears.

The wound that heals
Is the journey of our lives
Through fate and hope
Expunging hate and fear.

The wound that heals
We all know how it feels...



This Poem is shared with Sunday Scribblings and the Prompt is Heal.

  5. I think we all can identify. Our wounds do heal, even deep ones, and we move on.

  8. a wound that heals
    sets reminder of the pain,
    so intense that it left
    marks on the grain
    of time, precious, lovable
    these very marks make time immortal...
