wounds

from my wounds

from my wounds
wings grew
deep breath
and love
I flew

Ice

Ice maiden, ice warrior, ice princess: names signifying distance and threat. But yours were the hands that staunched my wounds.

Salt for a reason

April 1, 2016 / simonsalento / Leave a comment

All I could
think was I
wished my
tears were
not salt. They
scoured and
scarred the wounds in
my heart.
One day friends
said. I
doubted.
