As words are spoken
None are heard.
As my life drains to no end.
With every heart beat true.
So does every thing i live for.
But some one came
Out of the dark.
To make sure that i live
With these bandages upon my wrist.
I go forth...
Pleading with You.
To take back every thing that was done.
And within Your eyes...
As the reflection of my broken body reflects
Giving me that chance.
My wounds will heal soon.
As the bandages come off one by one.

Thank You for Your Entry ~
I like the tender tone;
the sense of hope arriving
after the pain is truly lovely
to read in this - being healed
in a way that the bandages
fall off is sigh worthy for me
best of luck
