Sting of it
I don't
I don't want
I don't
want to be with you anymore...
I practice it out loud.
Does it sting more to say it
or not say it at all?
There's hurt thread through everything —
I can't tell what is fresh or old pain anymore.
We can't heal each other.
I need space
to breathe.

Facing pain hurts. To speak painful things out loudly may hurt all the more since uttering them loudly has more than just a touch of realitiy. And reality stings ... I like that a lot, Tristique!

Thank you, Miss Chi.
This is a plain poem, to match the starkness of painful realities. It seems to work that way.

Some words wound, and hearing them is just as much of a blow as saying them. Murderous – well, that too. Thank you, John.

you must first confront the pain, to get over it.
