I don’t feel anything anymore
the wound that bothered me for eons
has become my companion now,
and I don’t know how or when
but I nurture my lesion now
treasuring it with utmost care,
and I keep fiddling it
to keep the pain young,
for I want to get the betrayals
close under the guards of my fragile heart

What’s a heart’s worth that hasn’t ever had a lesion.
What a soldier’s worth who’s not had a wound.
What’s a poet worth who doesn’t treasure the wound and its anecdote within him.

Sometimes we keep scraping our wound fresh to make sure we don’t forget the lessons we have learned from them
