why would she destroy what is beautiful
why would she carve out the ugliness
make it so obvious and overt
*
and why did I hold on
to what
and why did I pretend
that nobody got hurt
that I don’t hurt
that I look fine
but someone’s carving
*
I didn’t want to see what she could do
bodies disrupted
parts mutilated
look okay
look fine
think of our spark
we did it together
*
hold still
I
composed
keep that smile on your face
good
pretty good
*
but she
she reinvented all the parts
where your fingers had been
where your imagination had been
and exposed the ruins you left behind
that went so upsettingly unseen
but she
she made them obvious
she told the truth with scissors, markers and polish
on the bodies you claimed were fine
Croque-Melpomene 
I really felt this

truth laid bare closes the seams of the wound and gives time and souls a chance to heal! recover and find a space they can seek comfort in! Without that it leaks, seeps confusion and turmoil! the destructive view corterises the flow and allows closure, finite!
written beautifully! Without pain we do not know comfort, kindness and love the scar is the seal!
