Bruises of The Soul

by Nicole M. - Gemini

The purple eyes
Will eventaully fade
And completely go away-
Ice will diminish the swelling-
Take tylenol to dull the pain
Close my eyes 
When I pass the mirror
So I don't see
What's happened to me.

But what do I use
To reduce the shame
And what dulls
This pain
And I can't help
But see
The inside of me.
