Nursing Your Wound



Nursing Your Wound

Fire of reality smothered your dream
You came to me with half burnt dream,
You started conceiving it with vigor
Slowly you turned into an assuring figure,
However you couldn't hide your wound, it bled
I noticed your blood has different hues along with red,
Since then I have been nursing your wound
And life's new meaning I have found,
The wound-it was to be healed naturally somehow
But it would bear scalp of my care from now,
The scar would remind you, my love and care

Seeking his blessing you would follow the path fair.
