Wounded

My insides spill out

Like my belly was cut in two

You might think my injuries not serious

But you don't see the wounds they reopened

You don't see the true depth of your actions

Safety, security, trust

These are all things that dont't just come to me

I have to fight for them

I have fought for them

I've left therapy sessions broken and bleeding

Limping from the wounds finally felt

Reopened so they can heal

So when you create new wounds

The cut deeper

The dig into my flesh like a rusted knife that I have felt so many times before

Don't make me feel it from you

Don't minimize the harm

Help me heal

Or get the hell out fo my way
