Open Wounds

Post by Leona Rodrigues »

The last dinner with my loved ones,
The backstab from one of them,
The prayer to my father,
The search for the one with my name,
The anger of my friend,
The denial from the same,
The leather and metal of the whip,
The timid emperor, saving his name,
The heavy wood that I carried,
The fall that I encountered,
The 7 swords in my mother's heart,
The handkerchief dipped in water,
The robes soaked in blood,
The robes that covered my wound,
The robes that were forcefully taken off me,
The open wounds that the people saw,
The invisible broken heart,
Everything for just one thing, 'LOVE'.
You may not be the center of the entire world, but you are the center of your own world.

Open wounds. As poet's sound in any of their stories is so engaging. Words like this scare the enemy away.
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of intelligent effort.
