HURTING
Some hurts hide deep in the bottom
of the human heart. Some haven’t
had enough time to sink down there yet.
They are still too close to our face muscles,
too close to our tears and fears - so one
stays busy or hides - or wears dark
sunglasses - lest these recent hurts
provoke those who know us to ask,
“What’s going on in there? Are you okay?”
