How am I supposed to heal from wounds

No one even tried to bandage?

They aren’t clean…

They’re gaping holes,

Like gunshots,

And if I leave them untended,

They’ll rot.

I need more than time.

I need cleansing —

From the inside out.

Bandages. Care.

But what if I can’t do it alone?

Sure, hands reach out around me.

People try.

But something in me says…

It has to be you.

You’re the one who made this mess.

So you should be the one to clean it up…

Right?
