I slipped and fell, I lost my grip,
I stumbled around, bleeding out all my love.
I need him here, but he is gone,
Who will heal my deep, dark wound?
A light shines bright, in the distance,
Could it be my sweet, kind angel?
Is he here to heal and mend?
Or is he here to perform the finale?
I gasp as I see, it is not whom I think it is,
It is he who they speak of, but the one who has never been seen.
His voice is soft sounding like velvet,
As he reassures me that everything will be fine.
He breathes over my chest, and my body is warmed,
I watch in amazement as my wound is closed.
I no longer care for the one that left me,
I don’t yearn for his company and love.
Author notes
This poem is inspired by the title "God Enters Through The Wound".
It is not inspired by my life.
It is about a girl who is left by her lover and left with a 'deep wound' in her heart.
God then comes to heal her heart and when he is finished she is healed and therefore no longer has any feelings towards the man that once left her.

I didn't like this very much tbh, had too much of the same old same old feel to it, alot of simplicity with no meaning to back it up in my opinion, not alot of memorable images here either, pretty much a thumbs down from me
