Poem: Dark Blessing

blood on the sidewalk

Dark Blessing

Come, bleed with me.
Share my pain
and I will share yours.

Our secrets safe
even as we share. 

About this poem

I’ve come to the conclusion that keeping our hurts to ourselves is the best way to maximize the pain we feel, and minimize the healing we need. Of course, I could be wrong. I often am.

But this time? I don’t think so.
