Another Bruise

If something is already broken and scarred

What harm can another bruise cause?

Personal humiliation is nothing -

Let endurance cling with tough claws.



Into every life some drenching rain must fall

But no set amount is prescribed.

It seems I'm the unofficial watershed -

As such, I function as described.



By now you must know trust, love and betrayal -

Natural sequence of events.

It seems one of the biggest problems for some

Is not taking that as offense.



Well, one more bruise just adds glowing colour

In case anyone deigns to check.

But me? Through need, I have become colour-blind

And can live in an empty wreck.
