Wound

A wound blossoms
Out of dry skin

O sharp beauty!
A rose, arose

Now pink, now red
Exquisitely painful

Do not blame me
For eulogizing hurt

Do not blame me
For having lost faith in healing

Life has taught me:
Beginnings are more beautiful than endings

I cannot bear the thought
Of another new scar.
