salve

salve

my body
holds onto
pain

learns a
pattern
remembers

years after
injury
the same muscles
ache
same acid
galls

o my flesh
if only
I could let go
of little
traumas
pour light into
wounds
and heal

One thought on “salve”

  1. Mom says:

    I am sorry that you have to experience any physical pain, but glad you don’t have a diagnosis that would dramatically impact your quality of life. I am concerned re continued epigastric pain since the cause has been removed. Please email your GI Doctor & seek their advice.
