Quickly, before its too late
This wound is trying to heal
and needs air
Feel the sharp sting
The adhesive tears from the skin
once needed to stay intact
no longer serves its purpose
D0 it quickly
It hurts worse if you peel it slowly
like a child you don't believe me
there is that fear of the pain
trust me
it was comfortable there
for a while
safe and protecting the wound
but now the wound is rotting underneath
the suffocating layers
Tear it away
Let the wound breath Dammit
It needs to breath
to be exposed
It will only be a second
Go ahead and cry
savor the saltiness
Healing tears
Feel the sting
as they fall on the wound

Beautiful, and full of truth. Hasty, too, it seems. How fitting.
Wow, how simple your words, how deep they go, this one brought unexpected tears.
