Deeper Wounds
Unhealing
fractures splinter into deeper
mosaic veins of hurt, emerge
surface smiles, masking the bleeders
where silent cries resound, unheard
festering wounds remain un-healing
while careless fingers tear the flesh
from the wear of constant peeling
expose the scab where it was left
the words of consolation sting
when the lips they fall from lie
confessions spoken in disguise bring
another step towards goodbye
