It's interesting, the maybe about the way ahead, comes through; yet mostly, it sounds as though it's spoken from an optimistic place. The reader is left wondering, still .. about wounds, patched - not healed. Intriguing, and a very personal expression.
It was a prompt that started as a dare. I saw the image above on a wall and told my friend I liked it because it told a love story that ended bad. She dared me to write a poem about it and there you go!
Every time we write, it's like accepting a dare. I often wonder, if a prompt had been any different, would the poem be the same or are poems always exactly the way they are meant to be.
Kudos to you for having accepted another dare and producing a good poem.
