Band-aids

I wish emotional wounds were

just like paper cuts.

A band-aid would help cuts heal;

but, what will heal the pain in my heart?

I wish the pain would just go away.

The pain would never be healed with

just a single band-aid.

Heck, not even a thousand or a million band-aids

would cover up the pain.

I wish there was a band-aid

to emotional pain

because, only time will heal

the pain in a broken heart.

I wish emotional pain

was as simple as a paper cut

because only then will the pain be dulled

and it won't feel like a punch in the gut.

I wish a band-aid could

piece back a broken heart.

But till then, I guess

I'll have to live with these broken parts.
