Wounds never healing
until I want them to
Hurting myself
reminder of failures past
I know they are not my fault
but it is my burden to carry
As I open the past again
and release the cross I bear

Very strong and true...wounds only heal when we let go and stop reopening them...guilt and regret are so hard to overcome...nicely put...thank you for sharing!
