the hurt
sometimes the hurt that we feel is beyond description...
the type of hurt that doesn't even hurt because it causes every physical bodily sensation to go silent…
..go dark.
..almost stunned into submission or inattention.
perhaps arriving at this place of “forced numbness” isn't such a bad thing.
especially when the inflicted "hurt" could be one that is irrecoverable and irreparable.
that the hurt would be so bad as to make it impossible to pay attention to anything.
... anything else but the hurt.
.. a pain coexisting with the complete absence of feeling.
..a pain that is simultaneously of great magnitude, yet not even felt..
..something that leaves one with a paradox of extreme silence that is deafeningly loud.
experiencing hurt is a part of life (i guess)...
it's never pleasant when in the midst of it but, none-the-less, is a necessary part of growth...
..and often the genesis for change....
...the type of change that would never have occurred had not the depth of the hurt have been so great.
but.. wounds heal.. hurt passess... and new life emerges.
growth is never easy.. but, in the end, it's always worthwhile
