Open Wounds

Open Wounds

These open wounds
They bleed freely
Those same wounds
You sliced open incautiously
Dependence not necessary
Somber tears of lost rejoice
You were everywhere to me

While my open wounds
continued to bleed
Like a darkened well
Sprouting awakening shadows
And me at the bottom
Bleeding with open wounds
Freshly cut

It was time
My crimson bath
My long awaited shower
Salting wounds and screaming
Destiny had set its course
And hell would magnify
I closed my eyes
It was then I began to believe
With death as your lover
You will never be alone
