A Cut Finger

A CUT FINGER

A cut finger is numb before it bleeds

it bleeds before it hurts

it hurts until it begins to heal

it forms a scab and itches

until finally, the scab is gone

and a small scar is left

where once there was a wound.

Grief is the deepest wound

you ever had.

Like a cut finger

it goes through stages

and leaves a scar.
