Open Wound

Open wound

Bleeding trench

Victim of explosion

Suffering in pain lying frozen

Aching, throbbing, burning

Swelling, straining, hemmoraging

Crippling, piercing, stinging

Severe, intense-agonizing pain

You lie in your bed with your fractured skull

Pins and needles in your head

Your life is dull

Metal shaving planted deep inside your gut

Swollen gash, your flesh is raw, your throat is cut

Your body spasms

Your face is charred

Your lungs are punctured

For life you are scarred

Your skin is blistered

You're badly bruised

Your legs are twisted

The ones you once used
