Poems and Poetry: Time Heals

I’m trying so hard not to

Hide from myself because

I can’t explain myself to

Myself nor to anyone else.

My inside is on fire, consumed

By the injustice of my entire life

My imagination is overheating

But with time the gaping wound

Of injustice healed.

The flame of hatred burning in

My heart extinguished; the prompting

Of rage and aversion hushed and the

Longing for vengeance quelled.
