- Healing
(Poem by me)

Treading blood stained snow
Picking shards of glass out of my skin
So a new chapter in life begins
As countless poppy flowers grow

I ignored my wounds
Because I could not treat them
I used to feel so overwhelmed
So roses wilted in the gloom

I lost and lost and lost
And refused to give
Ashamed, I saw it as a sin
Already cried at such thoughts

Scared, lost and confused
Self inflicted torture
Tried to erase my nature
But would you rather die, than get bruised?

Mental contamination, lack of information
Worsened my repression
Still, I must accept my expression
And try to change my situation

Maybe one day, maybe in my future
I can give this flower to my lover
In every aspect, I can perhaps trust her
And we will go on an adventure

This is difficult, I am aware
A beating is easier to accept
Than a loving kiss with respect
But this joy, I wish to share

Romantic, loving, special moments
On the night of my dream wedding
I will finally feel ready
To explore this new enjoyment

In my happiest dreams
I am my most vulnerable
Loved, accepted, honourable
Only for her eyes to see
