Three types of pain.
December 22, 2013
1.
The hand within your body,
Fingers interlaced
with internal organs,
skin, mind, soul,
Closes to become a fist;
All contracts at once.
2.
Unbearable aches
Shoot like signals,
Latch to the end of your nerves like hooks
And tow towards your chest.
Each tug thrusting you deeper
And farther into yourself.
3.
Feeling whole
for the first time in months
and then remembering it all
again.
