Here I go again.
There’s a pain that can be relieved. With Mefenamic Acid. Aspirin. Paracetamol. There’s a pain that can be soothed. With dark chocolate. Vanilla ice cream. Alcohol. Massage. Sex. There’s a pain that can be suppressed. with further pain. Cuts on the wrists. Heads bouncing off walls. Creative ink injections on skin.
But it never really leaves. Not really. Even if it strays from your body for a while, or longer, its spirit remains. Yet, it’s the most excruciating bit. That essence that lingers. Untreatable.
