I have lost count of the years, although I know it still hurts.
Sometimes I wake up and the blood will be there again.
The burns dance on my skin and the flames seem to lick my body.
It feels real, it feels so real.
Make it stop, end this.
I do not want hope, or to heal.
I just want to feel numb.
You ask me how many centuries deep my wound is... I tell you an eternity.
