flesh wound

just a flesh
wound
you whisper
to no one
as you lift
your heart
from
the floor
and stuff it
back into
the cave
of your chest.
I'm fine
you say
bending in
the wind
of the open
door, the wind
of tomorrow
and the next day.
just a flesh
wound,
don't get up,
I'm only
passing
through, I
never meant
to stay.
