When it pains so much!!!

I fell down, got a wound on my knee, deeep large cut. The blood oozing out made me realize the pain, made me feel i needed to get it dressed up from a doctor. I went to the Doc who cleaned all the dust with cotton soaked with water and then aplied antiseptic lotion which made me cry loudly, though the cries were mute, m not supposed to cry out loud coz i've grown up, m not a kid. The Doc dressed up my wound n told me that i can get it dressed at home by anybody, its not a major cut n well it wasnt, nothing is a major cut. nothing pains until we let it to i guess. Came back home n kept cribbing about my pain causing voilence against all the ears who were not interested... Bad i guess, but could not help it... Next day i had to redress it. I slowly started to remove the bandage rolling it at the same time, feeling gross at the dry blood. Then i came to the last bit, the cotton had stuck to my wound n the momemt i started to peel it off it started paining, hurting like hell, i kept on removing it slowly till the time it became unbearable for me to bear that slow pain which was soaking my tears n i was wasting them n i decided to snap out of it. i held that peice of dressing from one end, closed my eyes, clenchd the other fist and pulled it hard, pulling some skin out with it, i let the blood ooze out, the pus accumulate on the periphery of the wound, so that i could clear the mess with some antiseptic and redress it. The wound should not stay, even if the scar does... The pain had to precipitate so that i could gather it and throw it with the discarded bandage. It hurts n it did but the wound has started to heal....

its a well written metaphor i am imagining...u're right wounds heal even if the scars stay.. sometimes though u cant just sit backa and wait for it to heal u have to yank off the cotton lest it fester underneath..
well written

Yes, wounds heal with the time..

But i dont wanna forget those memories of wounds because with those memories are linked the memories of various things like a mother taking care of his child when he is on bed and crying and father taking his kid to doctor , a brother going to school along with the leave applicatioj of his brother and sisters taking care of their lovely brother....

these are worth remembering memories and i am not so selfish that just because i was in pain so that i should not recall all those....

I just love that time and wanna go back for sometime again to hurt myself........

I AM FULLY NOSTALGIC at teh moment now......
