grains of sand and paper writing.

By Star

the
grains
of sand that
are between
my finger nails
and finger tips
are scars not forgotten. 


but...

i bleed every time i
a write a word on the page.

    Oh Brandi I absolutely salute this... it's very different from your norm. I've felt this pain many times before where the emotion is too strong to push out, and starring at its final outcome is troubling for the mind to be able to comprehend. So we reopen these scars to an extent so that we know deep down that we can still feel, regardless of our internal conditioning. Beautifully done★ Scholar
