I dust away the pain faster than reality can sink in; sometimes numbing myself to its effects. Most of the time, they work because I leave the scene unscathed and back to my normal self in a snap of the fingers. But there are times when I unconsciously push everything to the back of my mind and, especially when all the negativites accumulate and get to me, my negative emotions just threaten to spew out involuntarily.
One day, I will wake up and realise that it does not hurt anymore. Not even a little bit. Because I know that I am strong.
I am strong. I am strong. I am strong.And I have wonderful family and friends.
