Mellifluous Murmurs

Cleansing Wounds

I cleansed my wounds with purifying water

one that made my flesh stiffle and move..

I cleansed my wounds with purifying water 

that of which made me cleanse my heart with tears..

I cleansed my wounds with purifying water

loving each spec of my skin; careful for it to tear apart..

I cleansed my wounds with purifying water 

only to find that my complexion enlightened and undimmed from the dark..

I cleansed my wounds with purifying water

and thought that maybe I was an angel from the heavens above..

I cleansed my wounds with purifying water 

accepting each consequence and outcome.
