In this silence
I wish the wound can be cauterized
the heat must be extremely painful
but it will surely stop the bleeding
In this silence
I wish these gash can be stitched
it may take a while and forever leave marks
for the flesh will never be reopened
In this silence
I wish the trauma can be recovered
talking sessions after sessions after sessions
hoping the suffering will not remain
In this silence
I wish upon the stars and the universe
so I can love again
love so big like titan of saturn
love so sweet like odysseus and penelope
love so loud like trinity test explosion
love so beautiful like miki matsubara’s stay with me
love so much
til it fully consumes me
all over again
