Hiding Wounds

Bruise don't hide easily under white skin,
tears don't hide easy when you keep them in,
I have broken arms and legs, but I don't need a crutch
I've gained a lot of weight so I won't eat lunch.

Most promising according to title (to me),
all is subjective but only what I think matters
to me lol.
I think you've a great beginning here, feels more
is bubbling just beneath the wound.
Those wound vacs take forever to heal ...
