Throbbing was the Worst,
too hurtful to be an itch.
Aching was Unrefreshing,
though at least it held rhythm.
Pine needles prickled my Laughter,
until you referred to it as splinters.
Yes Splinters...
wood shards of broken stems,
Biting into each Movement.
I guess I learned to laugh at pain,
mistake cuts for scratches,
Laughter at the surface of Crying.
